It is rare to see a house built with a layer of steel sheets on the outside. However, DMOA Architecten, an architectural firm from Belgium, shows us such a house built with weathering steel sheets both inside and outside. Residential Architecture -Corten House.
Corten House is located in the suburbs of Antwerp, Belgium, and "corten" itself means "weather-resistant". The designers drew inspiration from the oxidized steel sheet material, and also paid great attention to the visual structural integrity during the actual construction process. Corten House has a clear-cut and compact layout from the outside. The swimming pool and small garden in the backyard are arranged together, saving space and protecting privacy while also complementing the functions. The most amazing thing is that compared with the surrounding natural scenery, the unique rust color of the weathering steel sheet shifts at sunset, and its silhouette projection brings a dramatic landscape effect that is amazing.
