Wonen in de tuin van de sigarenfabriek

Wonen in een groene omgeving dichtbij de stad, op de plek van de voormalige Genta-sigarenfabriek. Dat is de basis voor Tuinen van Genta, een nieuw woongebied in de wijk Brabantpark in Breda.

Fabrieksdirecteur Pieter van Gent liet hier begin van de 20e eeuw een tuin aanleggen, omdat hij toen al geloofde dat groen bijdroeg aan het welzijn van de fabriekswerkers. Deze tuin was de inspiratiebron voor ons stedenbouwkundig plan, waarin het groen bijdraagt aan een gezonde buurt.

Het plan bestaat uit een aaneenschakeling van groene ruimten.

Het Gentaveld heeft zicht op het oude fabriekspand, dat we transformeerden naar een bijzonder woongebouw met lofts en een gedeelde tuin.

Naast de woningen ligt een langgerekt park langs het spoor met een door bomen omzoomde laan.

Poorten en tussenstraten maken de gesloten bouwblokken toegankelijk voor bewoners en omwonenden, zodat zij allemaal van de weidse binnenhof kunnen genieten.

De architectuur verwijst met zijn stevige blokken, betonnen ornamenten en kleurstelling naar het industriële karakter van de plek. Door eenduidig materiaalgebruik en terugkerende elementen in de gevel, is Tuinen van Genta een herkenbare nieuwe buurt in Brabantpark.

De tuin van de sigarenfabriek was onze bron van inspiratie voor het stedenbouwkundig plan. De groene binnentuinen dragen bij aan een gezonde buurt.
