Cross House

The house is located within the medieval Patershol district in Gent. The building was infilled into the allowed built area, using a cross-beam concrete structure to act as both retaining beams for the old historic walls and also as an organising typology for the house. Considering the non-formal and aggregating buildings and plot layout of the block, by using the cross to arrange the space, it is also a way to seek organisation and orientation within the built fabric of the district.
