Belgium has been a stronghold on the global cultural sector for centuries. From the Renaissance, Art Nouveau, Surrealism, textiles, fashion and more. Today there is another scene on the rise through functional art & design.

Our small country currently holds a vast concentration of collectible designers that has not been seen before. Yet, it is still an avant-garde and rather unexplored territory on the international podium. We strongly believe Belgium - especially Brussels- will become the new design capital of Europe. Therefore, together with BRAFA, we will showcase our finest contemporary Belgian design masters and continue our focus on the exceptional artistry found on our soil. It stands as a tribute to the expertise that defines our nation and serves as a reminder of why we should take pride in our cultural heritage.
