Axel Vervoordt began purchasing antiques in his teens and has
steadily built a vast collection of exquisite objects from around
the world. He is renowned for his prestigious exhibitions at major
world antique fairs, including the New York Design Fair and TEFAF
Maastricht. His interior designs, in both traditional and modern
settings around the world, combine antiques from all continents
with a Zen sensuality, and they blend the old with the new to
create harmonious interiors. His unusual pairings may include
Chinese porcelain with English furniture or a Roman relic alongside
a 1930s Flemish painting.
The extent of Vervoordt's talent is revealed in the twenty-three
homes in Europe and the United States presented here through
Christian Sarramon's photographs. The variety of styles reflects
Vervoordt's eclecticism, and his authentic and welcoming interiors
are inspirational treasure troves. From the rustic charm of a Swiss
chalet to the classic finesse of a Bordeaux chateau to the modern
allure of a Miami mansion, Vervoordt's creations are perfectly in
tune with the character and history of each space.
