Espace Aygo for The New York Times Style Magazine
In Brussels, a group of young art-school graduates has turned a derelict six-bedroom townhouse into a creative playground. They’ve filled the rooms with their own collagelike designs, often made using salvaged materials. An alcove has papier-mâché walls made from copies of a novel that they discovered in the basement; a tree trunk-shaped kitchen island is partly sculpted from plastic waste; the living room sofa is a tangled nest of misshapen blue cushions atop welded metal rods. One bed is butterfly-shaped, another is surrounded by pink spray-painted pillows. The house, which they call @espaceaygo, has given the collective an opportunity not just to create work but to test it on themselves. Tap the link in our bio to see more of the D.I.Y. wonderland.
