I'm home

Piet Boon has been getting a lot of attention in the Holland. His private home is in Oostzaan, Amsterdam. He is living with his wife, Karin and their two children in this great greenery environment. The house has a dark gray roof and a unique chimney, giving it a classical yet minimal atmosphere. There is a large dining room, kitchen, wine cellar, living room, bedroom, bathroom and kid's rooms. He started up a small construction company in 1982 called "PIET BOON OOSTZAAN B.V." with Karin, but his interest shifted from not only constructing a building but to designing as well as them. Currently, Boon does the planning and construction of the building, as well as the designing of the interiors and the furniture. For him, attention to detail is an essential part of creating a comfortable residence. And he considers the scenery seen from inside the house is also important that you can view a pastoral landscape and a sheep crowd in his premise from the terrace where the furniture he designed, are laid out. Piet says that being a carpenter originally gave him a full knowledge of materials and that factor helps him when he designs. In addition to designing, the experience of being involved in all aspects of building a home has given Boon the ability to control things such as the temperature, lighting, and sound system, all with the help of a computer.
