It is an approach to form: rhythmic, balanced and defined by the calm that emerges from precision. It demonstrates how you can use architectural elements to shape, strengthen or soften an interior. At the same time, Art Deco functioned as a stylistic expression interwoven in the period's cultural and technological landscape: a crossroads where the new perspective on industry and progress, innovative materials and traditional crafts met. From this interaction, a design language emerged that was both progressive and accessible. Striking this balance is at the heart of what we do.

The story of innovation, people and timeless design

Ar lepnumu paziņojam, ka Orac oficiāli ir saņēmis Operation Clean Sweep (OCS) sertifikātu mūsu ražotnei Ostendē. Šis sasniegums ir nozīmīgs solis mūsu apņemšanās virzienā – veidot ilgtspējīgu un videi atbildīgu nākotni.

Kas ir “Operation Clean Sweep”?

OCS ir globāla iniciatīva, kuras mērķis ir novērst plastmasas granulu, skaidiņu un pulveru nonākšanu vidē.

Pievienojoties šai programmai, uzņēmumi apņemas ieviest labākās prakses, lai nodrošinātu nulles granulu zudumu, tādējādi aizsargājot ūdensceļus un ekosistēmas no mikroplastmasas piesārņojuma.

Kāpēc tas ir svarīgi?

Plastmasas granulas viegli var izkļūt ārpus kontroles ražošanas vai transportēšanas laikā un nonākt upēs vai okeānos, kur tās kaitē savvaļas dzīvniekiem un ekosistēmām.

Iegūstot OCS sertifikātu, Orac skaidri apliecina, ka mēs šo izaicinājumu uztveram nopietni un esam ieviesuši stingrus pasākumus granulu zuduma novēršanai.

Ko darījām, lai to sasniegtu?

At Orac, sustainability is at the heart of how we design, produce and innovate. That is why we are proud to share that our very first CSRD report has been awarded Best First Sustainability Report at the Belgian Awards for Sustainability Reports 2025.

More than a recognition, this award confirms that we are on the right track: building a transparent, measurable and future-focused sustainability strategy that supports designers, architects and partners in making more informed choices.

What this recognition reflects

The jury highlighted the clarity of our approach, from the structure of the report to the way we map our value chain, identify our impacts and set ambitious, measurable targets.

Although Orac is not yet subject to CSRD requirements, we chose to align our first report with the principles of the European Sustainability Reporting Standards. This allows us to improve transparency, strengthen comparability and anticipate

Dažas slimības nav redzamas, taču tās ir pavisam reālas. Tas ir De Warmste Week 2025, temats, kas pievēršas cilvēkiem ar neredzamām fiziskām un psihiskām slimībām.

Viena no skaistajām iniciatīvām šīs tēmas atbalstam nāk no Keiem. Augustā, Comedy Keiem, Keiem sadarbībā ar Het Kakelend Kippenmuseum, organizēja izpārdotu komēdiju vakaru ar populāro komiķi Steven Mahieu lai vāktu ziedojumus De Warmste Week.

Pateicoties Comedy Keiem un Orac atbalstam, ienākumi tika vēl vairāk palielināti – kopējā summa tika dubultota. Mēs ar lepnumu ziedojam 1500 € De Warmste Week. Sirsnīgs ieguldījums nozīmīgā labdarības iniciatīvā.

Šo sadarbību uzsāka mūsu kolēģis Migels, kurš ir ne tikai Comedy Keiem virzītājspēks, bet arī Orac pētniecības, inženierijas un ilgtspējas grupas direktors. Kad viņš ierosināja atbalstīt ziedošanas iniciatīvu, mēs ne mirkli nešaubījāmies.

Louise and Thomas fell in love with a stunning Art Deco home on Papegaaistraat in Ghent and embarked on a renovation journey to restore its original grandeur. One year later, their home is a seamless blend of historic elegance and modern refinement.

The entrance hall immediately sets the tone with its original tiled floor, beautifully preserved wooden doors and parquet flooring. These elements harmonize with sleek High Line skirting boards (SX181), enhancing the transition from floor to wall.

Only one room on the ground floor still had its original cornices. To bring this architectural detail back throughout the home, a combination of a cornice (C990) and a stepped panel mould (P9900) at both sides was chosen.

It creates a perfect link to Art Deco design.

In the downstairs study, where natural light is scarce, indirect lighting was used to accentuate the height of the room and enhance the mouldings. This subtle glow creates a warm and inviting atmosphere, while

Burlington embodies the refined grace of British interiors, where history and balance shape every detail. Grounded in tradition, this style draws on symmetry and understated grandeur to craft spaces that feel timeless yet alive. Burlington invites designers to reimagine classic interiors, weaving tradition with modern materials and unexpected contrasts to create effortlessly inspiring spaces.

A symphony of layers

Wallpaper creates an opportunity to redefine how walls interact with architectural elements. Pairing bold patterns or subtle textures with mouldings allows designers to create depth, frame focal points, or establish contrast. A well-chosen wallpaper can highlight the clean lines of cornices or panels, adding personality without overpowering the design.

Looking up

Too often, the ceiling is left as an afterthought

Immersive drama, refined detail: a monochromatic red palette amplifies the bold arches and intricate cornices, enveloping the space in warmth and sophistication. Velvet textures and glowing accents create an atmosphere of timeless opulence.

Reflective symmetry

Mirrors do more than merely reflect; they expand and enhance the architectural drama of any space. Through reflection, each architectural detail is celebrated twice, doubling the impact of intricate details.

Beyond amplifying light, mirrors transform walls into dynamic features, interacting with the day's changing light to continually alter the mood and perception of the room. They become accentuators of geometric precision and storytellers of spatial depth.

Surface perspectives

The finish you choose can completely transform the mood of a space. Matte surfaces bring a sense of calm, absorbing

When reimagining his Maldegem headquarters, interior decorator Geoffroy Van Hulle sought to create a maximalist environment where colour, texture, and architectural details worked in harmony. The challenge? Ensuring the bold design remained balanced and refined.

The post-industrial structure lacked warmth and depth, requiring carefully chosen materials to transform it into an inviting yet high impact space.

Van Hulle introduced Orac’s C211, C307A and C305 cornices and PX120 and P4020 panelling to frame and enhance the space. These elements added structure and allowed the vibrant patterns and colours to shine without overwhelming the composition.
