Karres en Brands | Studioninedots selected for Tergooi Blaricum!
“How and where will I live when I grow old, when I need assistance or care?” The answer to this question will unlikely involve relocating directly from your own home to a care institution.
For the redevelopment of the hospital site, team Karres en Brands | Studioninedots conceives a living domain between these two extremes. Our vision integrates the program into the landscape and into the village of Blaricum and approaches the new functions with a human scale.
We integrated landscape, urban design and architecture and imagined a village, a community, in a natural setting where care and the carers (co-residents and professionals) are never far away. The design of the landscape encourages shared outdoor living. The forested site forms a new link in the natural, spatial, infrastructural, energetic and social networks of the region.
After two competition rounds, we were selected by Projectvennootschap Blaricum for the development of the site.
In the near future, INSPIRE Real Estate, , Karres en Brands and will invite locals and stakeholders to contribute to fine-tuning this vision.
