Best Implemented Project of Residential Estate

About the project
Freebooter, a triumph of biophilic, home-owner-centric design.
Designed and developed by Amsterdam-based studio GG-loop, the project is an expression of the studio’s signature and philosophy of responding to the design brief with the experience and well-being of the end-user continuously in mind.
GG-loop's first residential building in Amsterdam represents the quality standards of the practice's future projects, based on high energy efficiency, high-quality interior spaces, and bio-based materials.
The floorplans, flow of spaces and organic lines were also created with careful consideration of daily use and the typical tasks of dwellers – in short, so the home is a healthy and productive habitat for rest and living.
