One of the world’s most respected antiques dealers, collectors and interior designers, Axel Vervoordt embraces an aesthetic that is remarkably accessible. “A good designer is like a doctor; he consults you for what is best.” The Belgian designer’s philosophy is equally simple: “Make people happy; make them discover things in themselves; make them feel at home and love their house.” For Vervoordt, home is a 50-room castle near Antwerp called ’s-Gravenwezel. Inside, the juxtaposition of antiques and art—from contemporary to 18th century to ancient Egyptian—reinforces Vervoordt’s mindful approach to design.-AD 100
