\n

Sander Rutgers is a landscape designer and team lead at BOOM Landscape. After completing his studies at TU Delft and gaining professional experience at architecten de vylder vinck taillieu, he founded his own architecture practice in Ghent, Belgium. This evolved into a collaboration with garden designer Jan Minne, which has since grown into a design studio dedicated to creating gardens that capture the imagination.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

With the botanical world as a point of departure, Sander designs spaces that embrace soil, seasonality, scent, and the living rhythms of nature. His work ranges from the scale of an intimate urban garden to that of a landscape park.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Sander has taught at KU Leuven, the Academie van Bouwkunst Rotterdam, and the Academie van Bouwkunst Amsterdam.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
