Ghent is not Dubai.
Nor New York.We don't have bottomless budgets to stick to a façade. And honestly? We don't want them. A home doesn't have to be a trophy. It should be a place you come back to. Where it simply feels good to live.
What we believe
Sustainable all the way into the walls. And we mean really in the walls. We build with hempcrete: a plant-based material that stores CO₂ instead of emitting it.
Walls that breathe, insulate naturally and create a healthy indoor climate, without chemistry or tricks. Warmer in winter, cooler in summer. Quiet. Pure.
No greenwashing, no sustainability label you need a magnifying glass to find. Here, sustainability is baked into the foundations. Not by accident, we've been nominated for an International Property Award.
Sustainable living shouldn't feel strict or boring.
We love colour, playfulness, homes with guts and a story. Not another grey new-build block. Funkey townhouses are designed for the real life of today.

At the foot of the Boekentoren · Ghent
“Three city homes with a name and a character: Peace, Love and Serendipity. Three houses, each with its own personality, connected by a shared vision on sustainability.”
That's how thefunkeybrand was born. Out of one stubborn conviction: it can be hip AND radically sustainable, without bling and without sky-high price tags.
Small country, big statement. We don't have Dubai's budgets. What we do have: the ambition to prove you can build for the future in Ghent. Sustainable. Stylish. With a smile.
This is only the beginning.
Funkey Townhouses is the first. Not the last. The same conviction (sustainable, funky, affordable with character) we want to roll out in every buzzing city. Antwerp, Brussels, Liège, Kortrijk, Hasselt. And then across the border.
For that, we're looking for partners who dare to build that future with us. Investors with vision, who see not only returns, but meaning too.
