short for the French laboratoire varié. A creative and multi-disciplinary design agency founded by two friends with mutual interests in different art disciplines. We love to philosophize about interior and exterior spaces and question their character, resemblance or differences. The first step is analyzing the architectural context, the landscape, the people or the animals inhabiting, moving and (temporarily) using the space.
We experiment with different scales, often using (un)conventional materials in search for the ordinary with more-than-extra's. Characterized by simplicity and a subtle sense of humor, we want our projects to stand out with logical and playful aesthetics. Belgium is grey enough already as it is!
But enough about us! We'd like to listen to your ideas.
