Zutphen residential villa in the media: example of acceleration in social housing construction

The urgency of affordable housing has once again been highlighted. An article by De Stentor this week discussed the shortage of affordable housing in Zutphen. The city is now struggling with a task of about 1,200 housing units. The article mentioned our Woonvilla Zutphen as a recent example of social housing that is being realized.

The mention is honorable, but above all it confirms what has been driving us for some time: the need is high, and the means to accelerate are there. Provided you design the process differently.

Woonvilla Zutphen: speed and quality united
The Woonvilla Zutphen consists of 24 energy-efficient studios for starters and young professionals. Thanks to our prefab steel frame construction and short internal decision lines, we were able to develop and realize the project within a short period of time. The homes were completed on July 1, 2025. It shows that speed and quality in housing construction go together just fine, as long as you choose an approach that focuses on predictability, cooperation and standardization.

Working together on solutions
We continue to build affordable, sustainable and stylish housing solutions together with municipalities, partners and investors. Not in ten years, but now. Because only then will we really solve the housing shortage.
