Delicate and bold. Unconventional and versatile.
– The nicest compliment I have ever been paid is “I hadn't noticed this project of yours”– explains Van Lierde. – Before being an architect and a designer, I consider myself an integrator, and what an integrator does is to study and experience the environment, to work with other people and empathise with the feelings of those who pass through a space. Only after understanding this, you can insert a new element into the ecosystem without destroying it, but making it more beautiful. –
Jan Van Lierde's international success is due to his incredible ability to handle an element as both vacuous and powerful as light, adapting it to the needs of the client and society in an era of rapid innovation and functional and cultural change. His comprehensive artistic vision, attention to detail and awareness of the social and technological impact of light envelop his products and projects with an additional layer of meaning that has pushed and elevated architecture towards a humanistic vision of lighting design.
