Infinite lines of sight cut a path through closed façades and pre-patinated zinc makes a fresh combination with cedar wood and porphyry cobblestones. Both open and closed, both contemporary and classic: Drakenburg has a timeless modern style that seems to fit for eternity. Had they been covered with thatch or tiles, the grand gabled roofs of the house and the stable complex might not have been so distinct. But the large pre-patinated titanium zinc surfaces make Drakenburg country estate stand out. The most extraordinary feature is not the resourceful choice of materials, or even the refined details - it is the timeless style that makes Drakenburg so special.
