Zacht Staal
Landgoed Rorik is a sustainable paradise where agriculture, nature, and recreation come together. As part of this is Zacht Staal, a restaurant situated within a greenhouse featuring long communal tables. Here, the culinary experience is enriched by the use of products sourced directly from the surrounding land. The design is an extension of the production kitchen, which rotates a quarter turn compared to the existing greenhouse. Up to countertop height, it is executed in a pigmented concrete, above which the greenhouse construction is executed in powder-coated steel. The open-fire kitchen is visible, allowing guests the option to dine directly at the countertop.

Oscar Sanders’ architectural practice has its foundation in social- and urban entrepreneurship. His graduation project serving as the poster child – ‘Het Zilveren Kind’ was a study designed to create stimulating collective housing for people with multiple disabilities in an urban context.

Designing space knows multiple forms within his practice. As an entrepreneur he embarked on a socially fueled journey that flowed into two cultural venues called Garage Noord and kanaal40. One focussed on offering a progressive cultural program and the other showing a dedication to micropopculture. Both serving as explorative safe havens for a diverse and inclusive public, both objecting to cultural institutions being pushed outside of cities borders.

This vision comes to life maintaining a practical approach with extensive experience in working with model- and material studies, sketching, collages and maquettes. His design process is intuitive and physical, and an overview of his relevant work is available to review here.
