Muller van Severen, A lot of Work - Apartamento
Fifteen years. Two artists. One essential book.
A Lot of Work is the first monograph dedicated to Muller Van Severen, the Belgian design studio founded by Fien Muller and Hannes Van Severen. Spanning 224 pages, it is the most complete portrait of their practice to date, presenting them both as a duo and as individual artists, tracing the full arc of one of contemporary design's most distinctive voices.
Structured as a collage rather than a chronology, the book draws from private and public archives to let images speak through proximity and contrast. Edited by Nicolás Barreto and Nacho Alegre, co-founder of Apartamento, it sits between art book and cultural artefact — raw, ruminative, and entirely its own thing. Less retrospective, more pause. A breath.
Alongside the monograph, Muller Van Severen marks their 15th anniversary with Silhouettes, a collection of candleholders in 100% raw aluminium, created in collaboration with BD Barcelona.
For collectors of design literature, fans of Belgian contemporary design, and anyone drawn to the intersection of art, object and process, A Lot of Work is an essential addition to the shelf.
