Hof ter Schelde

The project at Linkeroever is part of an integrated care campus including a residential care centre, outpatient clinic and nursing station, with a large underground car park. The landscape design encourages residents and care users to spend time outdoors through a network of paths and places for staying that promote movement and social interaction. The site borders a wooded area while also forming an open and legible connection to the surrounding residential neighbourhood. A central plaza, framed by flowering planting, seating and shade trees, functions as a key meeting place for residents, visitors and staff. Avantgarden landscape architects supported the client throughout the study and design phases, the public procurement process and construction supervision. Circulation, care-related functions and climate-adaptive strategies are carefully integrated into an open and inclusive care landscape that fosters neighbourhood integration and social encounter.
