Belgian Farmhouse
Inspired by Axel Vervoordt lineage / Vincent Van Duysen / Bernard De Clerck· no affiliation
Patinated limestone, hand-tooled timber, slate roofs — the Vervoordt / Belgian-countryside tradition.
- Patinated locally-quarried limestone (Belgian bluestone or Massangis) walls — visible hand-tooling, soft warm-gray patina.
- Steeply-pitched slate roof with patinated soft-gray cast — Welsh or Belgian slate, never asphalt.
- Hand-tooled oak structural timber at openings, lintels, doors — silvered with age, lime-washed, or beeswaxed.
- Restraint over abundance — maximum 3 visible materials on the elevation: limestone, slate, oak.
Scope
Major addition
Second story, major footprint expansion, ADU. The home grows.
Significant structural intervention: add a second story to a single-story home, grow the footprint by 30%+, add an attached or detached ADU. The original structure is the starting point but the result is meaningfully larger.
