Atelier Jespers has welcomed great names in design such as Domeau & Peres, Michael Anastasiades and the architectural duo Berger & Berger. The Atelier Jespers is keen to offer visitors challenging and nourishing exhibitions. It has thus established itself as a key venue for Brussels’ artistic programming. The setting of the modernist house created in 1928 by Victor Bourgeois, a member of the CIAM and the first professor of Architecture at La Cambre, gives the Jespers atelier the historical and aesthetic anchoring that exhibitions need to be exceptional.

Founded by the architect Theo De Meyer and the interior designer Arthur Dekker, the Ghent based collective Stand Van Zaken takes its inspiration from the Italian post-radical avant-garde studio Alchimia, founded in Milan by Alessandro Guerriero in 1976.
