‘B&Eau (pronounced as ‘B and O’) was founded in 2024 by Olaf Boxman. He is a true water park guy and has years of experience as a designer of water parks and swimming pools. Indoor and outdoor, large and small, and both new, transformation, and expansion’.
About the founder
Olaf Boxman is trained as a landscape architect and has extensive experience as a designer and master planner of complex spatial projects. In the Netherlands, he worked on a wide range of realized projects, ranging from city boulevards and residential areas to sports parks and ecological connection zones.
Leisure forms the common thread in his career. Olaf was involved in creating master plans for amusement parks, designing complete holiday parks, and developing creative concepts for experience and entertainment centers. From 2015 to 2023, he worked as a master planner and designer of swimming pools and water parks for ProSlide Technology, the world’s leading supplier of water attractions.
In that role, he was involved in more than 200 water park projects worldwide. Some leading references include Siam Park, Atlantis Dubai, Volcano Bay, and Great Wolf Lodge.
Closer to home, he worked on, among others, Hof van Saksen, Aqualibi, Rulantica, Aquadiver, Waterworld, Warner Beach, Zoomarine, and Aquopolis Villanueva de la Cañada.
This international experience forms the foundation of B&Eau: in-depth market knowledge, design quality, and a sharp eye for experience and operations.
