About us

Studio IR

Building or renovating your own home is a dream for many. We create exclusive designs with an eye for connection, logic and simplicity. Studio IR is a design studio for architecture and interior design.

We specialize in high-end projects and have a passion for biophilia. Our designs tell a story, they are a reflection of a character and every character is unique. We have an extensive network with knowledge and expertise, which allows us to respond to diverse and complex design challenges. With a smart design and an integral approach, time and therefore costs are saved. Our studio provides complete peace of mind, because your comfort comes first.

The studio was founded in 2011 by architect Ilse van Rosmalen, with the idea of being able to put her passion into practice. Her expertise, eye for detail, listening ear and ‘creative mind’ is what she is valued for.

The full-service approach, from aesthetics to technology and legal regulations, guarantees exceptional quality. The design is a combination of innovative techniques, attention to detail and refined spatiality. This results in an unparalleled living environment!

Connection with nature promotes our health and is therefore essential in architecture!

Design philosophy

Connection

The task of the architect does not consist solely of following the program of requirements and shaping formal appearances. For me, the user is central to the design. Architecture must make room for that which connects people!
Logic

A well-thought-out design is based on logic. Such a design is balanced, feels good and does not need to be explained. It is logical in functionality and aesthetics. It therefore has a certain simplicity, but is anything but simple. Logic goes hand in hand with precision and refined detailing.
Simplicity

Simplicity in architecture is a paradox, it is anything but simple. It is the ensemble of the right material, the appropriate colors and perfection in form. This refinement in detail makes a design of great quality. What appears simple to the eye proves in reality to be a great luxury and quality in architecture.

Biophilia

Vision

Biophilia defines the relationship with nature as a basic human need, daily contact with nature is essential for a vital living and working environment. Our vision is based on the theory of Biophilia, whereby the architectural design is a complement to the life of the user.
Sustainable architecture

Architecture based on Biophilia reduces stress, promotes cognitive functions and creativity and has a positive influence on our physical and mental condition. In addition, it strengthens the connection between people and place, whereby the user becomes attached to a space and cherishes it. The use is therefore endless and results in a lasting and thus sustainable architecture.
Luxury architecture

Biophilia literally means ‘Love of Life’. In our architecture this means more than just the direct visual connection with greenery, it is also about daylight, natural ventilation, temperature, sound, construction, material use, daily rhythm, seasons, color, reuse. Biophilic design is not a luxury, it is a necessity!
