LUC ROYMANS

In celebrating 21 perspectives on living through distinct Belgian residences, CREATIVE HOMES — INTERIORS AND DESIGN IN BELGIUM captures the spirit of Belgitude—in spaces shaped by intuition, materiality, and the blur between life, work, and play. Its cultural output—art, design, architecture—is both vast and distinctive, and reveals a country that speaks softly yet unmistakably shapes the conversation. From the surrealism of René Magritte to the rustic charm of Axel Vervoordt’s interiors, Belgian design continues to spark international admiration. Global undercurrents ripple through as well, from post-digital fatigue and the urge to soothe the nervous system, to a growing consciousness around sustainable living.

With 21 homes portrayed through intimate narrative and the crisp lens of Luc Roymans, Creative Homes: Interiors and Design in Belgium places a contemporary thermometer in the heart of Belgian domestic culture. This book reveals the stories behind remarkable spaces and the equally remarkable people who designed and inhabit them—offering insight into their process and boundless inspiration. Peeking into the residences of multidisciplinary creatives and curious scientists, of publishers and fashion designers, each dwelling strikes a unique chord.
