KP Townhouse

In the heart of the “Quartier Brugmann”, one of the most sophisticated and romantic areas of the European capital, there is this 3-storey house built on 2 lots on a beautiful tree-lined street.

Labscape Studio has created an interior project that turns out to be a real cocoon in the middle of the city for a Belgian couple and their family.

Together with the clients we worked together on some key points regarding their home such as:

-Light: A house where sunlight enters without obstacles increases the level of productivity, regulates the circadian rhythm, more precisely the sleep cycle and mental clarity

-The internal balance of the parts: optimism, vitality, serenity in a house designed in a harmonious, clean and tidy way gives positive energy to those who live there.

-The material importance: wood, fire, earth, metal and water are the key elements of Feng Shui, they have been studied and integrated into the project

-Colors: The wrong color palette can contribute to making our home darker and creating negative energy. The choice of colors was based on Feng Shui, for example.

The green used in the kitchen area, the center of daily life, gives tranquility and symbolizes the transition between inside and outside.

KP Town House is a testament to the artistry of Labscape Studio, a design firm that breathes life into spaces, infusing them with sophistication, modernity, and a touch of the past. This project, nestled in the heart of the enchanting ‘Quartier Brugmann’, is more than just a house; it’s a cocoon within the bustling city. A cocoon designed for a Belgian family that craved charm, freshness, and a connection with nature.

The project reflects Labscape Studio’s design philosophy. It’s a philosophy rooted in an unwavering attention to detail, a deep appreciation for noble and natural materials, and an ability to adapt to the architectural and interior cultures of different continents. Each project is a unique expression, influenced by its surroundings, embracing the climate, culture, materials, craftsmanship, and architecture of its location to create a harmonious and functional space. But, like every exceptional project, KP Town House comes with its own set of challenges. The client, an energy consultant, brought a unique perspective to the table. Together, they explored the spiritual and energetic aspects of the living environment. Light, internal balance, materials, and colors became key elements in crafting an atmosphere that nurtures productivity, circadian rhythms, and mental clarity. Elements of Feng Shui, such as the choice of colors and materials, were thoughtfully integrated, imbuing each corner with positivity and tranquility.

SIMPLICITY AND PLAYFULNESS COEXIST BEAUTIFULLY IN THIS PROJECT. FROM THE GROUND FLOOR, WHERE THE OAK FLOOR CREATES A CONTEMPORARY MARQUETRY, TO THE LIVING ROOM ADORNED WITH PLOUM SOFAS AND WOMB ARMCHAIRS, THE HOUSE IS A TESTAMENT TO THE INTERPLAY OF MATERIALS. A SOPHISTICATED AND FUNCTIONAL KITCHEN, CUSTOM-DESIGNED BY LABSCAPE, SHOWCASES WALNUT FURNITURE SET AGAINST ITALIAN VITRIFIED TILES IN VARIOUS SHADES OF GREEN AND BROWN. WALKING THROUGH THE HOUSE, YOU CAN SEE THAT NATURAL MATERIALS PREDOMINATE.

THE MASTER BEDROOM EXUDES SERENITY WITH A JAPANESE-INSPIRED HEADBOARD OF NATURAL COTTON FRAMED BY SOLID WALNUT WOOD.

Light, internal balance, materials and colors were key elements in creating the atmosphere.

The overarching message of KP Town House is one of peace and balance. It’s a space that combines minimalism with natural textures and colors to create a serene and harmonious environment. Natural materials and colors are key components in fostering this calming atmosphere.

EACH BATHROOM IS A UNIQUE OASIS WITH CAREFULLY CHOSEN COLOURS AND STUCCO.ON THE TOP FLOOR THERE IS EVEN A SMALL STUDIO OVERLOOKING A SEMI-COVERED TERRACE, DESIGNED TO OFFER FRESH URBAN VIEWS OF BRUSSELS.
