DE BANK:

During the 2006 renovation of the Atomium and reconstruction of Atomiumsquare the 'galette', housing the shop and entrance, underwent refurbishment, with numerous benches added to the square.

In 2012, the Atomium was looking for a solution to conceal ventilation and cellar air intakes in the galette's foundation. Our innovative bench, designed to follow the galette's curve, successfully integrates technical requirements, maintaining a cohesive material and design language. This design not only addresses functional needs but also enhances the overall usability of the square, allowing people to now enjoy seating 'under' the Atomium.

DE BANK:

We designed and brought to life the bench for the urban setting around the 'galette' of the Atomium, our national monument built for the 1958 Brussels World Expo. Constructed from concrete, this bench harmoniously integrates with the Atomium Square's urban landscape, offering a comfortable seating space directly beneath the impressive Atomium structure.

STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN:

The master bedroom features a generously sized en-suite bathroom. To separate the sleeping area, a dressing room is positioned between the bathroom and the master bedroom. Warm-hued solid bamboo parquet flooring seamlessly connects these spaces, creating a cohesive and inviting atmosphere.
