Edgar Meeting Room
2020-2021
In the heart of Ghent, a neighbouring warehouse of Edgar Guesthouse was transformed into a calm and refined meeting space. Conceived as a natural extension of the guesthouse, the design combines the quiet atmosphere of the interior with the layered greenery of the surrounding courtyard gardens.
A restrained architectural approach defines the space. A single, deeply set window frames a focused view of the garden, while a wide steel folding door connects the room to the terrace. Reclaimed terracotta tiles extend from outside to inside, creating a continuous transition between both.
Earthy tones and natural materials shape the interior, with rough lime plaster, linen curtains and bespoke oak furniture designed specifically for the space. The result is a thoughtful environment for reflection, conversation and quiet focus.
