A look inside: living in an old gym

Bianca (@studiodjoy): “We were able to make an offer in 2016. From the first moment we arrived here, we knew we could turn this fantastic property into something special.” The daydream came true, and the new residents of the historic school building managed to make a modern family home.

Interesting interieurstijl

“We opted for a modern and industrial style. The industrial is reflected in the steel elements and in the concrete floor. The modern is in the clean lines, the minimalist decoration and black-white-gray as basic colors. . “

Entrance of participants

A gigantic ceiling height, large steel facades and XXL plants – this is how the entrance can best be described. “Since we wanted to put everything back in its original condition, we made sure that the entrance was returned to its original location.”

Comfort in grandeur

Initially, there was a wooden suspended ceiling in the house. “It wasn’t until the renovation that we found out that she had an amazingly beautiful hood.”

Although creating atmosphere and warmth in a huge space is a challenge, Bianca has succeeded. For example, she divided the old gymnasium into smaller niches and an attic was installed.

Spacious kitchen

The proud residents chose to place the colossal kitchen block in front of the monumental windows. Many will envy this enormous kitchen.

Masterful Moss Wall

Big Bigger Biggest. The moss wall in the middle of the house is not to be missed. “The foam wall creates a cool effect inside. It is also good for the acoustics of such a room. And you don’t have to do anything about it. It is a very large and beautiful object. in the room.”

Chic hotel for sleeping and swimming

Where the locker rooms, bathrooms and toilets in the gym used to be, the bedrooms and bathrooms are now installed. Again in the style that has also been used in the rest of the house. A special element to highlight is the plastered wood slab wall with a metallic look in the master bedroom.
