Mediamatic ETEN goes viral

When, during a mid-lockdown brainstorm, someone casually suggested to use the greenhouses at the waterfront for our restaurant, we couldn't have foreseen what would become of this concept. Aren't they a bit small, and can we create a nice climate for dining in them? We decided to go for it. Now the greenhouses are famous all over the world.

About one thousand articles have been written about the Serres Séparées. We have been covered by BBC, CNN and CGTN China, among many others. 

Here we collected a few of our favourite articles and videos.
