Surfing The Void

ESTEFANIA LORET DE MOLA : our lives are inherently in a state of constant transition.

Cross House is a minimalist residence located in Ghent, Belgium, designed by Generiek. 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 organizing typology for the house. The partition walls on the upper floor align with the beams. 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 organization and orientation within the built fabric of the district.
