JAN S.

A physician and biologist who reads the landscape as a space for care and restoration. His passion for greenery, balance and sustainability gradually led him towards landscape design. Guided by the belief that “life is a landscape,” he seeks places that encourage pause and reorientation, where beauty and well-being converge. Through thoughtful, gentle interventions, he aims to create small escapes—landscapes that offer just a little more breathing space than everyday life.

IDALIE V.

A designer with an investigative approach to landscape, heritage and culture. Drawing on her background in art history and anthropology, she explores the stories embedded within places. She combines a hands-on mentality with imagination and analytical rigour. Her approach begins with reading, interpreting and grounding a site, creating layered landscapes in which history, use and ecology reinforce one another.

FLORIS D.

A graphic designer who became an entrepreneur before ultimately finding his place in the landscape. After several years in the creative sector, he and his partner spent eleven years building and running a hospitality business—an experience that sharpened his sense of atmosphere, organisation and collaboration. Driven by a passion for nature, ecology and aesthetics, he later shifted his focus to landscape architecture, where his design perspective takes root in place, use and experience.

KURT V.

Former managing partner of a communications agency, with a background in strategy, storytelling and participation.

At the crossroads of landscape architecture and urban planning, he seeks people-centred solutions to spatial challenges, drawing on a broad and interdisciplinary perspective.
