Muller Van Severen

Fien Muller and Hannes Van Severen’s work—better known as Muller Van Severen—were both started as artists, their work naturally positioned somewhere between design and art. The duo creates sculpturally interesting ‘furniture objects’ with the space around it in mind, inspired by their shared passion for art, architecture and materials. Simultaneously, their designs appear to be created almost intuitively, with total effortlessness, as if the designers were drawing with crayons in space. Found in homes as well as large-scale institutions, Muller Van Severen's own production pieces are handmade by small-scale fabricators and skilled artisans, with an honesty to the rawness and irregularity of the chosen material.
