哈仙达风格的别墅的永恒改造。当涉及到新庄园风格的别墅改造时，除非进行非常激烈的干预，否则经典的概念永远不会变得现代。考虑到客户显然仍然重视他长大的家的情感价值，建筑师在这个有兽医诊所的房子的改造中没有选择。
Timeless renovation of a villa in hacienda style. When it comes to the makeover of a villa in neo-hacienda style, the classic concept never becomes modern unless very drastic interventions are made. Something that was not an option for the architects in this renovation of a house with a veterinary practice, given the emotional value that the clients clearly still attached to the home where he grew up in.
同时，他们也明确希望最终的结果是与他们现有的房子完全不同的概念。建筑师带着好奇心研究了现有的风格特征，并将其与新的干预措施相结合。这导致了一种令人惊讶的连贯性，设法将三代居民联系起来。
At the same time, it was also their explicit wish for the end result to be a completely different concept from that of their existing home. The architects studied the existing stylistic features with curiosity and combined them with new interventions. This resulted in a surprising coherence that manages to connect three generations of residents.
令人激动的原始风格元素。客户的要求是彻底改造父母的住宅，并设置兽医诊所，以便他们的孩子，但也包括以前的住户的祖父母也能有家的感觉。昔日的风格选择，融入了许多典型的新风格元素，激发了设计师的创造力，拥抱并增强了住宅的哈仙达体验。在他们的设计中，仍然可以读到原来的布局，让祖父母、子女和孙子女都能在新的形式中找到自己，并且每个人都能在其中认识到自己的故事。
Exciting original style elements. The clients’ request was to thoroughly renovate the parental home with a veterinary practice so that their children but also the grandparents who were the previous residents would also feel at home. The style choices of yesteryear, with many typical neo-style elements incorporated, sparked the creativity of the designers to embrace and enhance the hacienda experience of the home. In their design, the original layout can still be read, allowing grandparents, children and grandchildren alike to find themselves in the new formality and each recognizes their own story in it.
入口处的一个令人印象深刻的混凝土雨篷加强了雄伟的老房子的外观。遮阳篷的混凝土结构在兽医诊所的侧面扩展的基座和后面的画廊中得到了体现，这在诊所、生活空间和花园之间创造了一个宽敞的循环。通过原来的砂岩门廊，人们从画廊步入楼梯大厅，大厅特意保留了原来的巴洛克风格，与画廊一起，散发着时尚的宏伟。作为一个额外的风格细节，现有的石板覆盖的屋顶的屋檐被延长。这一优雅的干预措施突出了屋顶上原有的褶皱，使别墅更具有真实性和精致性。
An impressive concrete awning at the entrance reinforces the look of the majestic old home. The concrete structure of the canopy returns in the plinth of the side extension of the veterinary practice and in the gallery behind it, which creates a generous circulation between practice, living spaces, and garden. Via the original sandstone portico, one steps from the gallery into the staircase hall, which was deliberately kept in the original baroque style and, together with the gallery, exudes a stylish grandeur. As an additional stylistic detail, the existing eaves of the slate-covered roof were extended. This elegant intervention accentuates the original kink in the roof and gives the villa even more authenticity and refinement.
混凝土的微妙力量。在设计师看来，混凝土是这次改造中结构干预的唯一合理选择。一方面，这种材料是中性的，足以与原来的房子的风格很好地融合在一起，另一方面，它也有足够的力量给新的元素以足够的个性。通过将承重混凝土结构作为一个精致的最终产品进行细化，施工方法和美学在一个诚实和透明的故事中走到一起，这也表现在现场浇筑的材料的纯度和视觉上的不完美。
The subtle power of concrete. Concrete seemed to the designers the only logical choice for the structural interventions in this renovation. On the one hand, the material is neutral enough to fit in nicely with the style of the original house, and on the other hand, it is also powerful enough to give sufficient individuality to the new elements. By detailing the load-bearing concrete structures as a refined end product, construction methods and aesthetics come together in an honest and transparent story, which is also expressed in the purity and visual imperfection of the material poured on site.
慷慨的经验。在庄严的外立面背后，潜藏着一个符合人类尺度的内部。窗户的高度达到了长椅和橱柜的高度，候诊室和练习场创造了一个开放和轻盈的花园亭子的氛围。
Generous experience. Behind the stately exterior facade lurks an interior on a human scale. With windows up to the height of the bench and cabinetry, the waiting room and practice create the atmosphere of an open and light garden pavilion.
摘要。这座翻新的庄园风格的别墅不允许自己在形式上被束之高阁。清晰的混凝土基座与原有的新风格细节相结合，形成一个永恒的整体。
Summary. This renovated villa in hacienda style does not allow itself to be pigeonholed in terms of form. A sober concrete plinth combined with the original neo-style details forms a timeless whole.
