Thomas Serruys

Thomas Serruys (°1986) is a Bruges-based, self taught designer with a back ground in selling 20th century design and art.

His interest in crafts, machines and creating can be considered as a common thread in his life. Having pursued different approaches, it all inevitably led to the founding of an own atelier in 2016.

Through the time of collecting and trading, the interaction between the aesthetic, function and material of a good design has always been a trigger for an intuitive person like himself. He follows his gut in choosing and selecting pieces, an important characteristic also to be found in his own designs.

His creations naturally start from an urgency to wanting to live with it himself. This, and the lack of boundaries when it comes to materials, is often the conception of a new design.

His atelier, located in a former cotton mill on the ring way of Bruges, is mainly equipped to work steel. It is there where the first prototypes see the light of day and productions are made.

A story of constant evolution while bearing craftsmanship highly in mind.
