Rosa / Atlas Architects
Rosa is a thoughtful renovation and ground-floor extension of a 1960s rowhouse in Bussum, The Netherlands. Designed by Atlas Architects, the project integrates contemporary architectural elements while respecting the character of the original brown brick structure. A warm pink palette, used consistently throughout the exterior and garden, defines the visual identity of the project and inspires its name, "Rosa." At the heart of the extension is a large, striking pink concrete masonry block that serves not only as an aesthetic focal point but also as a multifunctional object. The block integrates practical elements such as cabinetry and an outdoor fireplace, creating a seamless blend of form and function. The concrete bricks are arranged in a vertical pattern that further enhances the modern yet cohesive feel, ensuring harmony with the existing building.
