Some interiors speak loudly. Others whisper with confidence. Tristan Montabord-Marc's latest realization belongs to the latter category. Rooted in a philosophy of timelessness, authenticity, and meticulous craftsmanship, this project demonstrates how carefully considered details can elevate a space beyond aesthetics into something deeply personal.
Some brands compete for attention. SUMUM does precisely the opposite. The Belgian brand crafts architectural hardware in solid brass that settles into any interior with restrained elegance. We spoke with Silke Budts, design advisor for Belgium, about the philosophy behind the brand, the strength of the Colour Concept, and the collections winning over architects and clients today.
With The Colour Concept, SUMUM extends its finish language beyond switches, outlets and reading lights. Together with Quincalux and Jullight, we explore how one refined finish can bring architectural hardware, lighting and interior details into the same visual rhythm.
Nestled at the end of a quiet cobblestone driveway in Knokke, this new coastal villa stands as a testament to timeless design. Built by Unidevelop, conceived by Huysman Architects, this villa offers a masterclass in spatial harmony, capturing the elusive balance between expansive openness and intimate privacy. From the very first impression, the home reflects the same quiet sophistication that defines SUMUM, where refined design and thoughtful detail come together.
When restoring a historic property, the difference between a standard renovation and an architectural design often lies in the smallest details. In a striking Antwerp townhouse project, am designs proved that modern minimalism is not about stripping everything away. Instead, it is about choosing exactly what remains with absolute intention.
