The extraordinary remake of the Hendrick’s Gin Palace in Scotland
The famous Hendrick’s Gin Distillery is located on the South-West Coast of Scotland. Michael Laird Architects along with the Design Team were commissioned to design a purpose-built distillery for Hendrick’s Gin of William Grant & Sons.
The devalued industrial strip, hemmed in between railways and a canal, is being converted into a valuable district of Vilvoorde. Within this strategically located reconversion area on the edge of the European capital, we find the ‘t Sas project.
Carpet of clay pavers as part of architectural artwork by Martijn Sandberg
At the beginning of the twentieth century, Spaarndammerbuurt consisted of characteristic urban ensembles from the Amsterdam School period. The neighbourhood is still largely intact but over time it has picked up scars here and there which are slowly healing.
With the launch of Linea7 7045 and Linea7 9002 the ecological ‘Linea7-range' now consists of 9 subtly nuanced colour shades.
22 April - Vande Moortel office in Oudenaarde
We set up the Vande Moortel Clay Paver Awards in order to promote and support unique designs created using clay pavers. Projects which rise to challenges such as sustainability, accessibility and cost efficiency, for example.
It is therefore our belief that high-quality fired clay pavers belong in such environments. That is why we want to draw attention to projects – both large and small, public and private – realised using our pavers and reward the people who designed them.
We are proud to announce the winners of the various categories of the Clay Paver Awards 2020-2021.
5 striking and characterful colours
The slim format of this brand new series of Wasserstrich clay pavers creates a powerful visual language.
The new linea7 facing bricks are produced using the Wasserstrich method which gives the visible surface a smooth, pure structure.
Our entire range of facing bricks is available as brick slips – the ideal solution for processing facing bricks when space and weight are a determining factor.
Gevelstenen en straatbakstenen in unieke kleuren en formaten
Steenbakkerij Vande Moortel is opgericht in 1864 in de Scheldevallei te Oudenaarde. Vandaag is ze op diezelfde locatie actiever dan ooit. Geleid door de familie Vande Moortel groeide de firma uit tot een belangrijke fabrikant in het topsegment van de gevelstenen en de referentie in de kleiklinkermarkt. Het behoud van het familiale karakter en de toegankelijkheid op alle niveaus zorgen voor een uitermate klantgerichte organisatie. Momenteel produceert de steenbakkerij 95.000.000 stenen per jaar, bestemd voor de Belgische markt, haar buurlanden, de Scandinavische landen, Oost-Europa en andere exportmarkten zoals Japan, Amerika en het Arabisch Schiereiland.
