about us
Sometimes something happens special when two worlds meet: an encounter that not only surprises, but is immediately right. What started as a professional cooperation quickly grew into a close friendship, supported by a shared vision and a deep-rooted passion for interior design.
One plus one became three: a reinforcing synergy of expertise, creativity and trust. From that natural chemistry, Blue Mandarin was born: a high-end interior studio where aesthetics, workmanship and intuition come together in a groundbreaking approach to living environments.
EGBERT
At an early age, Egbert developed a fascination for workmanship. Raised among the wood shavings in his father's workshop, specializing in luxurious yacht interiors, he became familiar with precision, high-quality workmanship and working with noble materials.
His education at the Wood and Furniture College laid the foundation for his technical insight and sophisticated knowledge of materials. This expertise was further honed at various high-end interior houses and while working in the world of exclusive yacht interiors.
His move to residential interiors brought a new dimension: designing living environments that resonate both aesthetically and personally. At Flexform Amsterdam, he met Zoe, which marked the start of a creative collaboration.
Egbert is known for his flawless sense of proportion, customization and spatial compositions. His approach is modest and thoughtful; averse to fleeting trends, always looking for the gist. With his sophisticated eye and natural knowledge of people, he knows how to create interiors that are not only visually impressive, but also breathe peace, elegance and timelessness.
