Axel Vervoordt, Wabi Inspirations .
, Flammarion , 2011 Hardback, 270x215mm, 256p, 350 colour illustrations, English edition . ISBN 9782080301451.
Interior design guru Axel Vervoordt shares his latest inspirations for the home. Axel Vervoordts intense curiosity has fueled his work as an interior designer, spurring him to explore and draw inspiration from cultures around the globe. He was first exposed to Eastern art and philosophy years ago, but today it has become the guiding principle in his work, particularly the concept of Wabi. Developed in the twelfth century, Wabi advocates simplicity and humility, the rejection of all that is superfluous or artificial. Through extraordinary photographs from Japan and Korea to Belgium and Switzerland, Vervoordt invites us to explore the elements that inspire him: natural materials and timeworn objects that evoke the essence of Wabi. Today, together with the Japanese architect Tatsuro Miki, Vervoordt carries the principles of Wabi into his remarkable interiors. As Vervoordt reveals how he infuses his current creations with a fundamentally oriental approach, interiors devotees will gain new insight from this tribute to the designers latest sources of inspiration for the home.

Room of Wonders I / Axel Vervoordt,
, MER. Paper Kunsthalle , 2018 Softcover / 96 pages / 19 x 25 cm. ENGLISH ISBN 9789493045040.
DIVA will be inviting renowned designers and curators for a contemporary interpretation of the Wunderkammer, a chamber exhibiting a collection of art and curiosities, objects from every corner of the globe. The Wunderkammer stems from Antwerp's illustrious past, for until the middle of the seventeenth century the city led the way in the production and distribution of art and luxury goods. Silverware, jewellery, precious stones and exotic curiosities like coconuts, shells and coral were highly sought-after. Axel Vervoordt, after his famous series of biennal exhibitions at the Palazzo Fortuny in Venice, will take the lead. The catalogue published on the occasion of the exhibition 'Axel Vervoordt, Wonderkamer 1' at the new Diamond Museum Antwerp is the 2nd issue of an affordable series of DIVA 'magazines', opening and sharing the reclused world of luxury arts and crafts. Axel Vervoordt (? 1947, Antwerp, Belgium) has earned renown as a collector, antiquarian, interior designer and, most recently, curator. Counting among his clientele royalty, rock stars, financiers, tech tycoons and artists, he is one of the world's foremost tastemakers. 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 believes that, as in a Zen koan, truth can be contained in paradox and ambiguity.

AXEL VERVOORDT : PORTRAITS OF INTERIORS
, Flammarion, 2019 Hardcover, 264 pages, ENG, 310 x 240 mm, NEW, illustrated in colours. ISBN 9782080203755.
Eighteen recently-designed homes demonstrate how Axel Vervoordt incorporates nature, art, and timeless interiors to create living spaces that encourage self-reflection, inspiration, and happiness. For a half century, Axel Vervoordt's vision has been defined by a continual quest for harmony, beauty, and the creation of interior atmospheres that are rooted in the past, connected to the future, and imbued with today's comforts. Here, the designer reveals his guiding philosophy and pursuit to uncover the profound sense of well-being that a home can evoke. These eighteen residences -from an urban New York penthouse or Moscow apartment to a waterfront estate in New England, and from a Tokyo dwelling to a Bordeaux wine ch teau or a Wabi farmhouse- reveal how art complements architecture and the elements of nature in an alchemy of Vervoordt expression. Portraits of each residence -including the Vervoordts' own homes in Venice and Belgium- feature sweeping vistas of the surrounding landscape and a tour through the interiors. Each detail?from the materials used to the graceful placement of a well-chosen object?offer deep insight into the Vervoordt design approach and abiding principles for living and working well. A home should be an oasis, a haven that fosters a sense of well-being and joy. Axel Vervoordt demonstrates how -through the creation of timeless interiors- a home can convey a spirit of generosity, love, and emotion to all who cross the threshold.
