The New Office of One House Design

In 2001, Italian architect Vittorio Gregotti was invited to plan the cityscape of the New City of Pujiang, Shanghai. Twenty years later, One House Design moved into its new office in the iconic two-story building of OCT ECO CENTER created by Gregotti, thereby opening a dialog of design across time and space.

Modern mediterranean villa in Valencia

This powerful industrialised construction is located in Valencia. With a Mediterranean style, this villa stands out for its O-shaped layout on two floors, mostly used to place a space as the centre of the house and distribute the rest of the spaces through it. In this case, the living room is situated as the master of the house.

Period room Drift 23 University Utrecht

Faking It  Builders of the Baroque were dab hands at conjuring up illusions of depth. They weren’t of course the first, nor the last, to deal in deception. From the walls of Pompeii with fake windows onto imaginary landscapes to the digital décors produced for today’s film-makers, trompe l’oeil has long been a favourite in the designer’s bag of tricks. Used to effect, it adds an unsettling dimension, making you doubt the evidence before your eyes. But that’s not the effect created in the nineteenth-century period rooms at Drift 23 in Utrecht, now occupied by the city university. The decorative paintwork on the frames and cornices may be convincing and of immerse historical value, though it doesn&rs... More

Casa Cesari

Architecture expresses itself through form. The identity and interests of a building are implicit in its physical expression, its character is defined by the way people and even nature react to it.

Period Rooms Janskerkhof

Period Room 001 and 002When considering the wall coverings in Room 001 however, there is little space for free compositions. The late 18th century period rooms have a strongly symmetrical disposition of tracings and panelling whereby certain wall surfaces were left open to be finished with textile wall coverings. The photographic images of material assemblages which Driessen+Van Deijne had used before were used here as well. The difference being that for these prominent and highly representative rooms the images were first woven into a Jacquard fabric which was then photographed and printed onto the wall covering cloths. These were sewn, tensioned and mounted into the recesses of the wood wallpanelling. And so here, on close inspection one... More

project for Oranje Huis

The Oranje Huis in Amsterdam, part of Blijf Groep, offers shelter and assistance to women, men and children who are affected by domestic violence. Blijf Groep is convinced that the quality of the living environment in the shelter is important and can contribute to the recovery and self-esteem of the residents. That is why the organization asked Driessen + van Deijne to decorate the bare and impersonal corridors in Het Oranje Huis in such a way that they express “welcome, warmth and respect”. Maarten Noordijk Palm leaves, with their unruly resilience and the security they can provide, were inspiration for the decorative program. A decorative stripe was applied to the walls of the long corridors on both sides. The track s... More
