Vervoordt, whose clients include Robert De Niro,\u00a0Kanye West, Bill Gates, Sting, and\u00a0Calvin Klein, has perfected the ability to create environments that look found, not made. His work shows that he admires the ephemeral and raw imperfections found in each object. Let\u2019s take a look at some of his most iconic projects<\/strong><\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

His keen eye and penchant for beauty becomes more prevalent when looking at\u00a0Kasteel van\u2019s-Gravenwezel,<\/em> Vervoordt\u2019s twelfth-century Belgian estate, a castle set in a 62-acre park surrounded by vast orchards, which was restored in the 1980\u2019s alongside his wife May with reverence to the building\u2019s history.<\/p>\n

Axel Vervoordt Gallery Hong Kong<\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n $\"Inside$ <\/a><\/p>\n
The Axel Vervoordt Gallery Hong Kong is an extension of the existing gallery in Antwerp<\/a><\/strong><\/em>.\u00a0 It offers a complementary program of specially commissioned works and will be an important platform for i<\/em>nternationally renowned artists<\/strong><\/em> to participate in the radically-changing art scene in Asia<\/strong><\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n
$\"Inside$ <\/a><\/p>\n
Since the 1970s, Axel Vervoordt has developed a strong interest in Eastern philosophy, directly feeding into the spirit of the company, which has the ambition to create a dialogue between East and West. As a result, the gallery has naturally worked with a broad range of artists who tend to explore concepts of void, universality, or infinity.<\/p>\n

KIM AND KANYE CALABASAS MANSION<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n
$\"Inside$ <\/a><\/p>\n
This project is a story of probing and passion: bought in 2013, the Kardashian West family<\/a><\/strong><\/em> together with Vervoordt<\/a><\/strong> (and with the input of more interior designers) spent 6 years in the metamorphosis of the house from suburban McMansion to futuristic Belgian monastery. The initial attraction for the musician and the designer was centered on a signature Vervoordt<\/a><\/strong> design\u2014a Floating Stone table with rounded edges that seemed to encapsulate the seductive simplicity and wabi-sabi aesthetics that pervade the designer\u2019s oeuvre.<\/p>\n
$\"Inside$ <\/a><\/p>\n
In practical terms, the best way to describe the house is by Kanye\u2019s words: \u201cThe proportions are the decoration\u201d since the house is the epiphany of minimalism<\/strong><\/em><\/a> and echoes a luminous, off-white plaster color scheme and accented with other pale natural materials.<\/p>\n

Other Inspiring Projects by Axel Vervoordt<\/strong><\/a><\/h2>\nYet he has little interest in \u201cstyle,\u201d at least as it is currently defined, because essentially, Vervoordt<\/a><\/strong> is a metaphysician. Inquiries into the nature of being and concepts of time and space are what most compel him; he conveys his views through his inspired arrangements of objects and interiors. To some, expressing the lofty in the material might seem contradictory, but Vervoordt<\/a><\/strong> believes that, as in a Zen koan, the truth can be contained in paradox and ambiguity. Clients may go to him in search of a splendid antique armoire or for help renovating and furnishing an 18th-century villa, but the most valuable service they receive is an instruction in his highly evolved yet quite fundamental philosophy of living.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>Axel Vervoordt started as a very young collector when he was 14. He was at an exhibition, which has these machines and mobiles by Tinguely. He couldn\u2019t afford it. The same day he found a 16th-century iron chest where one lock moved 8 other locks and this was one-tenth of the price. From then, he really felt some old things were as contemporary as contemporary art. For him, it\u2019s important that an artist opens his eyes in a new way.<\/p>\n
