Hi Everyone,
My name is Hans and I’m from the Netherlands. I’d like to share with you that we will be building a WikiHouse Swift this summer in Doetinchem.
As an architect I already have experience with WikiHouse. I helped with the designs of the WikiHouses at the Stripmaker in Almere. When I got the opportunity to build my own house, I immediately knew that I wanted to do this with WikiHouse. I am also looking forward to gaining experience with WikiHouse as a builder.
When designing it, I thought it was important that I would add something to the WikiHouse toolbox with our house. That worked. We will connect 2 WikiHouse volumes via a timber-frame corridor. This creates new possibilities in the map. The modules have also been calculated with an additional load from a green roof. I also raised the existing modules by 20 cm, so that there is more space to create an attic. This way we create more usable floor space.
I am now busy with all the preparatory work. We will start construction in the first week of August 2024. We estimate that this will take 5 weeks. If you would like to help. Let me know: info@hansklanker.nl. Any help is welcome! The construction can be followed on Instagram: @hans_klanker_architect.
