In the Netherlands, he has worked on a wide range of realized projects, varying from city boulevards and residential areas to sports parks and ecological corridors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Leisure forms the common thread throughout his career. Olaf was involved in drafting master plans for amusement parks, designing complete holiday parks, and developing creative concepts for experience and entertainment centers.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From 2015 to 2023, he worked as a master planner and designer of swimming pools and water parks for ProSlide Technology, the world&#8217;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.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Closer to home, he worked on projects including Hof van Saksen, Aqualibi, Rulantica, Aquadiver, Waterworld, Warner Beach, Zoomarine and Aquopolis Villanueva de la Ca\u00f1ada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This international experience forms the foundation of B&amp;Eau: deep market knowledge, design quality and a sharp eye for both guest experience and operations.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Clients<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">B&amp;Eau&#8217;s clients include leisure designers, architects, municipal sports companies, (social) real estate developers and consultants, hotels, campsites and holiday parks, as well as owners and operators of water parks.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">B&amp;Eau works for and with parties active in the early development phase of swimming pools and water parks.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">B&amp;Eau often operates at the intersection of vision, concept, and feasibility, acting as a substantive sparring partner, designer, and strategic advisor.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mission<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">B&amp;Eau&#8217;s mission is to enrich the swimming pool and water park landscape with distinctive designs, appealing attractions and exceptional environments, always linked to a solid and future-proof business model.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">B&amp;Eau works on projects of every scale: indoor and outdoor, large and small, for new construction, transformation, and expansion.
