THATCH BUILDING
The project concerns the extension and renovation of an existing daycare center for the mentally disabled, situated in a natural wetland area near Delft. The complicated limitations of the patients make the sensory and tactile quality of the building a key issue in the design process. The emotional wellbeing of this specific group and their ability for orientation is greatly determined by the building, both in shape, lighting and the use of materials.
