On the long concrete retaining wall that is part of the dyke reinforcement project Hansweert, a song text celebrating the village will soon be installed. We created the graphic design together with Raakvlak ontwerp en communicatie.

The first tests have been carried out with the sandblasting of the concrete and the brass letters that will be placed in it. The use of coarse or fine grit, the distance of the blasting equipment from the wall, whether or not the letters should be taped off or blasted: all exciting design choices we were able to make on site together with the contractor Combinatie Answest and landscape architect Robbert de Koning. The residents of Hansweert may start practising the song!

Around the Kanaal van Deurne and the Helenavaart, in relation to the Waterschap Aa en Maas's major maintenance works Blom&Moors designed spots along the water that can be reached while walking or cycling. In these places, you experience the peace and quiet of nature and can contemplate the valuable cultural history of the area. 

Completing the plans for a complex dyke reinforcement at the village of Hansweert, Blom&Moors, in collaboration with Robbert de Koning, landscape architect and commissioned by the combination Answest, designed a series of furnishing elements for on the dyke, at the retaining wall, at the beach and in the park. Work started in January 2023. By 2027, the dyke will again meet the new standard of the High Water Protection Programme. For the people of Hansweert, it will again be an attractive place to play, swim, walk and look out endlessly over the Westerschelde.

Concrete is seen as a hard and drab material, but if you give it a radius and smoothness, the look changes. The Mellow Poufs&Planters were designed by us with this in mind. The series of seating elements and planters are available through Struyk Verwo Infra (NL) and Stradus (BE). They can be used outdoors ánd indoors as desired.

The refurbishment of the Offenbach Marktplatz station in Germany has been completed. Blom&Moors was commissioned to enhance the residential quality through renovation of the platforms and the development of new furniture. In addition to the previously developed seating elements (type Calidum), two more "members" have been added to the modular and sustainable family: a minimalist designed leaning stand and a multifunctional desk with USB connections as a place to work, read or eat some. The 37,000 thousand daily travelers are now the test panel

One of the Smart City projects in progress of Deutsche Bahn is the refurbishment of Hamburg Harburg train station. What were only remnants of the vegetation of a monumental garden of yesteryear has had a major makeover. The rich variety of trees, perennials and ornamental grasses tolerate extensive maintenance. Travelers can enjoy the waving and subtle coloring composition on foot or from a concrete bench. The integral design was created by Blom&Moors, Trafique and Liesbeth Rijnja.
