Showcase: Obumex launches updated Brussels flagship
Staden-based brand Obumex knows what it takes to create a sophisticated and functional home. So when we heard that the interiors specialist is launching their updated flagship store in the heart of Brussels, we couldn't help but to sit up and take notice.
The company's new space offers ample inspiration, with offerings staged within different thematic groupings and laid out across the showroom's 250 sq m. The ground floor hosts the ‘Objects of Collection Particuliere’, a luxurious series of designer furnishings by Jérôme Aumont. Adjacent to this is the company's offices, including a set of carefully selected Interstuhl office chairs, which are beautifully aligned to the company's ‘urban and contemporary’ style.
Towards the rear of this level, visitors are greeted by a commanding Emperador Black natural stone staircase, leading to the upper floor. Nearby, the third section of the ground floor is home to a seating area equipped with sofa, library and a set of saloon tables, courtesy of Moinard. A family kitchen area designed by the in-house designer team at Obumex features the company's own tap, a series of light coloured, structured cupboard doors, and a second dose of Emperador stone.
Moving up, the store's elegantly informal first floor loft area is tucked underneath the building's wooden trusses. It comes furnished with Vitra and Knoll furniture and enveloped in a calming colour and material pallette.
Showcasing the extensive Obumex portfolio of interior offerings, this showroom creates a gesamtkunstwerk of style, all conveniently located under one roof.
