ASR Dessel
This project in Dessel, designed by AID Architects, breaks radically with the classic structure of a residential care project to make way for a bundle of intriguing contradictions. The common thread throughout the concept is the pursuit of a place where old and young feel at home, where rest and activity form a harmonious whole and where well-being, care, living comfort and nature go together in a contemporary warm architecture. The favorable orientation of the site creates an elongated volume parallel to the street. The building makes a pendulum movement and thus fits nicely with the surrounding buildings. The project consists of three phases/buildings, A, B and C, with Building A completed in 2013.
After the preliminary completion of BLOK A, architectural and engineering firm OSQB assumed the role of project manager. For this, OSQB acted on behalf of the client and helped coordinate in the execution of the remaining open items. OSQB then assumed the role of executive architect for BLOCK B for which it also worked out the study stability and study techniques.
Block A consists of 39 service flats & 63 care rooms, Block B consists of 60 service flats.
