Object Information
The piece was inspired by the designer's great passion for travelling and exploring the world. The nostalgic daydreams one experiences when recalling great journeys of the past, the excitement one feels while packing for a new adventure, those are the emotions that Maarten wanted to arouse.
Impressive towers and asymmetric compositions are made by piling up suitcases and briefcases in precious leathers created by Maarten De Ceulaer, in a close collaboration with one of the most renowned leather artisans in Belgium, Ralph Baggaley.
These pieces, though colorful and playful, evoke luxurious and sophisticated atmospheres, but at the same time they carry the dynamic vibe of modern nomads, that travel through cities and continents without restrictions or boundaries. In some pieces, like the Desk or Bench Of Briefcases, this dynamic is wonderfully captured; it feels like time was suddenly stopped while these briefcases were floating through time and space, creating pieces of furniture in which the structure is the storage space, with convenient drawers of various dimensions.
