Cross Your Heart / Church Conversion
St. Jakobus stands unobtrusively as it blends in with the surrounding topography and architectural scene. The church ceremonies and its general operation stopped in 1991; ever since and until 2007 the church was used as a showroom for antique furniture, as well as a meeting place for small concerts. Zecc Architects have transformed this historical building into a unique single dwelling.

The Cement Factory Home & Workspace of Ricardo Bofill
The Cement Factory, discovered in 1973, is a building with unique design and architectural elements; a lofty interior full of style. A mixture of textures and forms, materials and impressions; the enormous spaces, the large arched windows and the stunning quality of natural light throughout the day makes it a unique place to live in and work in. Moreover, these magical elements stand in the midst of transformed gardens which were once the yard of an abandoned cement factory.
