This man is Axel Vervoordt, a super-human of refined and
distinctive taste. He has devoted his life to the pursuit of
beauty in all its forms, from the art and objects that he
sells to the unique way in which he combines and lives
with them at his house in
Antwerp. His pursuit is
infectious���let���s catch it!
In Wabi Inspirations, the
latest book documenting
Mr. Vervoordt���s visual
world, we learn what this
strange word wabi means
and are led down a rarified
path which changes how
we think about the way we
live. He states at the end
of his introduction, ������I
sincerely hope I can help
you to see art, life, and the
universe from a different
dimension.��� Once you
encounter him, you will truly come under his spell. This
must be his modus operandi; his influence guides the
taste of his many admirers.
Wabi Inspirations documents environments designed and
constructed in collaboration with Tatsuro Miki, a sensitive
architect raised in Kyoto and now based in Brussels. Their
