Avenue Lequime, Belgium
Private commission
The house wants to unify the traditional bricks and tiles exterior with a modest pure interior.
A two storey home, divided on one side for children and the other for the parents,
is connected by the common living area.
On the ground floor the common areas with the hallway, the kitchen,
the living room and the library are following a linear circulation,
facing the garden. The left back wing of the house is dedicated for children
with their rooms, bathrooms and the playroom.
Axonometry of the wooden closet with the fireplace
and a large fire case to store wood and display objects.
The second level is divided the same way, children’s
playroom on the left and the parent’s corner and the right side.
By closing the sliding door, the parents’ bathroom can be divided
when receiving guests in order to give privacy to both sides.
Opera House, Belgium
Study
The Queen Elisabeth Music Chapel.
The use of wood is relevant and significant for the acoustics, the quality of the sound
and diffraction purposes. All those things are crucial to an opera, which is why I decided to focus on the
use of wood as a main material for this project.
Yves Klein, Monotone Symphony, 1949
An art piece that combines music, painting, performance and dancing.
I was inspired by this piece and tried to apply this notion to the whole building.
Have a space where the arts are combined and communicating with each other, helping one another.
Tokujin Yoshioka, Rainbow Church, 2010
Exemple of an art piece that could fill
the building gracefully and communicate with the architecture, the music and the surroundings.
Motoi Yamamoto, Floating Garden , seasalt installation, 2013
On the fourth floor, I though this installation could be another good exemple
for an art piece that is interacting with the space, the materials and the people.

Bookshop, Belgium
Study
Derived from Japanese culture, the bookshop is a repetition of a pure geometric shape,
combined with plants and foliage, natural light and a white peaceful ambiance.
The materials are related to nature, at the service of a quiet place.
A space where you feel light, calm and can focus entirely on the book you are reading or looking for.
From time to time, the inside is visible and palpable from the outside.
Boundaries tend to blurry.
Able to change it, this facade blends with the inside concept.
