What BAAS architecten does

BAAS architecten is a Dutch architecture firm headquartered in Tilburg, Netherlands, founded in 2011, specializing in the design and realization of exclusive luxury villas. The firm serves private individuals seeking bespoke high-end residences and, secondarily, project developers working on hotels, resorts, and luxury developments. Its core service offering is an integrated package bundling architecture, interior design, structural engineering, and project and construction management under a single point of contact, marketed as 'luxury villas with full direction' (Luxe villa's met volledige regie).

The firm's technical approach treats architecture, construction, and installations as a unified design problem from the first sketch, supported by in-house structural engineering and technical design capabilities. Client-facing technology includes advanced 2D and 3D visualizations and VR walkthroughs that allow prospective owners to experience a villa spatially before construction begins. The firm also offers a specialized steel frame construction (Staalframebouw) service for rooftop additions on existing buildings, enabling lightweight, fast-assembly projects with minimal foundation requirements.

Commercially, BAAS operates a consultative, project-based sales model with no publicly disclosed pricing beyond indicative construction cost guidance (casco from €2,250/m² incl. VAT, finishing from ~€125,000). Clients engage via the website's 'Plan een kennismaking' contact funnel, direct outreach, and referrals. The firm is privately held with no disclosed investors, no funding rounds, and co-owners Roy van Hoorn and Martijn Jansen leading a 10-12 person multidisciplinary team. Project work is concentrated in the Netherlands and Belgium, with additional international engagements in France and Spain.
