High-end duplex penthouse
For his refuge in the heart of Antwerp, the client wanted an oasis of peace where he can invite friends for a drink before a night out or for a dinner prepared by a chef. It speaks for itself that the centerpiece of the renovation of this duplex penthouse was the kitchen.
The combination of high-quality materials, well-considered design choices, functional elements and an eye for detail make this home an oasis of refinement and comfort.
A conscious decision was made to create a connection between the two floors. A wooden trellis starts on the cupboard wall in the kitchen and continues on the upper floor. This adds texture and character to the interior.

The use of natural stone and brass creates a warm atmosphere throughout the rooms. The bedroom area with adjoining bathroom feels like a hotel room suite due to its open character. The decoration and furniture were provided by the decorator Geoffroy Van Hulle. The result is a cosy cocoon where you can relax.
