Six Dwellings in Borneo Eiland
The Borneo project is a large scale intervention, in the central harbour at Amsterdam. The Six Dwellings are a very small part of it.
EMBT depart from the existing planning conditions; a house on each side of the street and they transformed it into a single long house that faces both streets.
The first hypothesis is the abstract planning; a single long house from street to street. Then, the small street that existed in the planning becomes an empty house.
EMBT wanted to investigate the Dutch tradition about single room constructions. From this abstract hypothesis, a much more intuitive way of working with living conditions is developed. The architect like to play with abstract dimensions that later will become living conditions.
