360 Villa

Designed by 123DV in Rotterdam, this single family house features a continuous window that provides a 360 degree connection between the inside and outside of the house.

Dutch studio 123DV designed a single family house for a couple and their beautiful Alaskan malamute dogs. It features a continuous window that is shaped in a circle all around the house provides a 360 degree connection between the inside and outside of the house. Therefore, continuous visual contact with the dogs is made possible.

  The canopy goes all the way around the house and offers a sheltered place in case of rainy days, no matter the wind direction. On sunny days it provides the necessary amount of shade. On one side of the villa, near the bedroom and kitchen, the garden floor goes half way up to the facade.

Within the small area of 85 sqm, the Dutch architects have tried to capture a spacious feeling in the design, in combination with ensuring maximum contact between residents, their pets and the garden. The house has an open floor plan. As is often the case in hotels, the bedroom, bathroom and living room are connected. The bedroom can be disconnected from the living room by closing a sliding hatch.
