In the north of Amsterdam, a traditional ‘’Dijkhuis’’ (dyke house) has been transformed into a family home by Studio Modijefsky. This kind of building, as you might have guessed, is built next to a dyke. As building a dyke raises the ground level, it means that houses around it have a back area (and garden) at the lower, original level.

Every story begins from nothingness, every design unfolds in response to the context and its nuances. Initiated and later abandoned by a builder team, the project came into our hands with the footings laid. Working on a canvas with the outlines and edges already defined requires transmuting every limitation encountered to possible opportunities.

The Liangzhu civilization, which began in the Chalcolithic Period, flourished and left behind a legend to be admired and studied. Chinese civilization has left its mark on this land: folk culture, art and nature grow here, which form the inexhaustible local heritage. It is an ultimate carefree when wandering freely between the landscapes.
