As Found, De Singel, Antwerp

As Found: Experiments in Preservation focuses on the new relationship between contemporary design and heritage. The scenography by FELT utilises the existing exhibition hall as ‘found architecture’. Floor and ceiling elements are suspended to conceive a new framework in which the objects are presented.

Object Stories, Design Museum Gent

Together with doorzon we had the chance to develop a new concept for the presentation of the permanent collection of the Design museum in Ghent. The premise: A permanent collection shouldn’t necessary result in a permanent exhibition. This partially 'curatorial' challenge, in opening up a +20.000 pieces strong collection towards the broad public, induced a design proposal that aims at incorporating ‘room for doubt’.
By closing off the inner core of the building from the space around it we consolidate the spatial duality that was already inherent in the plan. The perambulation around our newly created center we use to showcase a selection of masterpieces. The core itself provides a place for experiment: A permanent resource for temporary interventions continuously revisiting the collection in its full range and depth.

Beyond Klimt, BOZAR, Brussels

'Beyond Klimt' starts with paintings by Gustav Klimt and brings together works of former Austro-Hungarian artists who, after the fall of the empire at the end of WWI, each placed their artistic identity before their nationality. The scenography design accommodates a unifying atmosphere leading the visitors through different rooms and chapters. A ribbon of hand drawn pencil lines forms a continuous guideline. It's changing rhythm provides a means to alternate intensity throughout the different rooms. Similar vertical lines shape the marbled plastic benches and pedestals.

Jenevermuseum, Hasselt

The Jenevermuseum is characterized by heavy wooden trusses and an abundance of crude brickwork. The scenography aims to introduce a new lightness within the historic site. Slender white structures are positioned between the bulky beams. The result is a juxtaposition that results in a continuous interplay between dark and light, solid and slim, old and new.
