a space of humble luxury

housewares designer/maker michael verheyden and wife saartje vereecke live in genk, belgium, inhabiting this brick house that looks as if painted by vermeer.
their space looks rather sparse and i really like it that way. because that way, what they keep about themselves are really the things that make them joyful. what's more, most of their stuff was designed by them.
i really like how they choose to surround themselves with friendly but clean colors and with objects of simple forms that are nevertheless made of precious materials like marble or nubuck.
