Michael Verheyden
Michael Verheyden is a Belgian designer (b. 1978) with a worldwide reputation. He combines respect for local traditions and expert workmanship with elemental forms.

He is inspired by the long-standing tradition of Flemish design and craftsmanship and the peace and quiet and natural surroundings of the region where he was born, near Genk (BE), where he still lives and works today. At the same time, his passion for fashion, art and the energy of large metropolises also influence his work.
