Stable Conversion

"Another day, another white loft. It says it’s time to loosen up the definition of “loft” – a home does not necessarily need to be located in a city to have the elements of loft living, especially with conversions. Case in point: Check out this awesome stable-turned-live/work space from Brussels. Not many details are known, but here is the description of the space from the photographer Ocvirk Kus Danica’s profile on OWI’s website:

“A former stable house has been converted into a photography studio, office space and living area on the top floor.”

What makes the space so great are the original elements of the structure that have been simplified with white paint and concrete. They have used the stalls as rooms, keeping the main area open save a long dining table, chandelier, and swing. And how about that oh-so-stunning circular window that serves as an anchor for the space. The benefits of practicing restraint (notice not one thing is hung on the wall) are perfecting exemplified here, where the uniqueness of the building takes center stage."

La Classe - converted space


"La Classe is the name that owners Anne and Jean-Luc Laloux – both specialized in architectural photography – have chosen for this old village school they have converted into an accommodation for groups and seminars.

Located in the heart of Denée, a small village in Belgium, the 1863 building can now accommodate up to 21 people in seven bedrooms, each with its own bathroom.

“The interior combines high quality materials, space and simplicity. It has a very peaceful atmosphere” says Anne Leroux.

“All the paintings, objects and installations have a connection to the old school, but in a humorous way. Children go crazy when they see the school chairs hanging on the main wall of the kitchen!”

La Classe can be booked all year long, from €1,900 for a weekend to €3,120 for a full week."

(M)eating - meeting & eating


What if you had to organize corporate meetings in an environment that was conducing to creativity and inspiration? What if you needed practicality, comfort, discretion, and good food? What if that was done in a cozy and relaxed atmosphere with delicious food? And what if you could buy the objects and furniture as well? Well .... in a refurbished industrial building not too far from Antwerp, you can do it all ... welcome to (M)eating - a spin off of The Home Project (see upcoming post) ...

At this time, all is organized in Flemish (so is the site) .... hopefully, the English version will happen soon!!!
