What will certainly draw people to the Auto Family Home immediately is the expansive pair of green roofs that rise up from the larger yard in broad strips. Naturally, the interior program of such an unconventionally abstract dwelling would be sure to intrigue, yet there's another unexpected feature to this project that one would come to uncover.
It's clear that the lower of the crisscrossing volumes incorporates a garage, with the way that the driveway leads right to the facade. What you don't see from the outside, however, is that the cobblestone path continues up through a great length of the building, which is long and open and lined with a set of steps. This part of the Kwk Promes Auto Family Home doubles as a flexible art gallery.
