This weekend, the gallery opens the doors to its new seaside gallery in Knokke with an inaugural exhibition:
Jean Prouvé: Elements of Architecture
Opening cocktail on Saturday, April 25, 2026, from 17:00 to 20:00 for this exclusive, invite-only opening by the Belgian coastline.
 


Form, function, and the poetry in between
Jean Prouvé (1901–1984) was a French designer, engineer, and self-taught architect whose work sits at one of the most exciting intersections in 20th-century design, where industrial production meets genuine artistry. The son of a craftsman, Prouvé grew up with a deep respect for materials and making, and it shows in everything he created.

Working primarily in metal, Prouvé designed furniture and architectural structures that were honest in their construction: One could always see exactly how something was made and why. His iconic pieces, from the Antony chair to his celebrated demountable houses, carry a visual logic that feels as fresh and relevant today as when they were first conceived.

Prouvé never drew a sharp line between design and architecture, between the handmade and the industrial. That refusal to choose is precisely what makes his work so enduring; and so eagerly sought after by collectors around the world.
 

Showrooms
The Knokke gallery joins our flagship showroom in Roosendaal, a vast 5,000 m² space that has long been a destination for collectors and design lovers from across Europe. From April 25, both galleries will be open to visitors, offering two distinct but complementary experiences of the Mass Modern Design world.

Whether you find us by the sea in Belgium, or in the heart of Brabant in The Netherlands, the same passion for exceptional design awaits you.
 
Our galleries showcase high-quality furniture from leading brands and manufacturers, alongside distinctive and unconventional pieces that set the collection apart.
