PIETER MAES

Paris-based designer, Pieter Maes was born in Antwerp and graduated from the Design Academy Eindhoven. His work includes furniture collections and limited editions for acclaimed brands and design galleries.

Maes’s works are often marked by a sculptural nature and a tactile consistency. These qualities are rooted in the instinctive comprehension of ancient artefacts and timeless designs. His pieces portray a contrasted appreciation for furniture that can either comply with traditional ideals or entirely rebel against them. This duality allows for the coexistence of diligence alongside the essence of reverie.

AEON PROX

Nº 1 "Aeon Prox", a collection designed by Pieter Maes for BOON_EDITIONS, which combines architectural inspirations and curving forms. The collection explores elegance and softness, with the furniture featuring soft sculptural shapes, refined materials and unexpected details. A creation of emotional connections that experiment with the boundaries between art and design using the undulating silhouettes to decorative use to offer an enticing prospect: comfort. The power of pure shapes that transcend time is central to the aesthetic of Pieter Maes. Aeon draws inspiration from human history that has never been written down and remains undocumented, artefacts that hint at a distant past or a potential future.
