Belgium-based industrial designer Michael Verheyden is a contradiction of sorts. Professing his passion for rock music on one hand, while on the other insisting that silence that inspires his designs, this award-winning designer of accessories for both fashion and the home, has us captivated with his use of elegant restraint.
Using leather, marble, brass and linen, Verheyden prefers materials that develop a patina and beauty with age, while retaining the original clean, simple lines of his design.
After taking part in the last two Wallpaper* Handmade projects and exhibiting in Milan, we’re expecting to see a lot more of this talented new comer to the design world stage.
