More and more people are discovering the importance of greenery in their living environment. Not only because a garden full of plants, trees, and flowers looks beautiful, but also because it contributes to a healthier and more sustainable world. But what exactly are the benefits of a green garden? And what should you consider when creating a garden design?

To celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Mien Ruys Gardens, Buro Mien Ruys designed three city gardens that have become an integral part of these special gardens in Dedemsvaart.

It's always fun to see our designs come to life! Last summer, we had an inspiring garden tour day with several stops along the way. From private gardens to public green spaces, we couldn't stop talking about design, planting, and color combinations.

According to Jana, the romantic garden is a place where silence and melancholy converge. Not perfection and control, but natural forms such as winding paths, sloping lawns, and asymmetry.

In the Get to know… section we regularly put a colleague in the spotlight. A great way to get to know our field of work and to show the faces behind our people-oriented company. This time a special portrait!

A healthy living environment for students starts with a healthy schoolyard! There is a temporary subsidy scheme to help schools create a healthy and inspiring play environment. And we are happy to think along!

At the end of March, the renovation of the complex garden of Ymere at the Zernikehof in Badhoevedorp was completed. The design was in the hands of Buro Mien Ruys, in collaboration with the residents!

As part of NL Doet, the national volunteer campaign of the Oranje Fonds, the team from Buro Mien Ruys rolled up their sleeves on Friday 14 March to prepare the Gardens of Mien Ruys for spring.

Tomorrow we will be working in the Gardens of Mien Ruys! Buro Mien Ruys is participating in NL Doet, the national volunteer action of the Oranje Fonds on March 14 and 15.

Last week our colleague was Ruud Boon present at the Symposium 'Head, Heart and Hands, nice places for users' in The Element in Amersfoort.

A design for a green, challenging playground with attention for children and nature. The playground in Egmond-Binnen contains natural elements and the green strip has a climate-adaptive character with native and regionally related planting. An attractive playground for playing children and residents!
