Vincent van Duysen continues his research into the world of the contemporary living by designing this Gregor modular system for Molteni&C. Gregor comes complete with differentiated functional solutions.

Gregor comes complete with differentiated functional solutions.

It includes various straight, corner or peninsular units that can be mixed and matched together to give multiple combinations for a living space destined for conversation, reading and entertainment, with all the media devices readily available. 

The multiple features underline the overall lightness of the design. 

The steel base, in a new zinc finish, supported by small feet that recall VVD’s most recent furniture designs, such as the Quinten sideboards or the Jan small tables, is covered in leather, as are the winged armrests suitable for supporting soft cushions while at the same time acting as a useful surface. Gregor is a sofa collection playing subtlety with low proportions, thicknesses and a mix of refined materials.

"Modular, it can be used in a wide range of compositions or as single units, from the typical 2- or 3-seater sofa to an elegant daybed." - Vincent Van Duysen

Vincent Van Duysen

Vincent Van Duysen was born in 1962, in Lokeren, Belgium and graduated in architecture at the Higher Institute of Architecture Sint-Lucas, in Ghent. From 1986 to 1989 he worked in Milan and Brussels. He opened his own studio in Antwerp, in 1990 focusing on architecture and interior design. 

The relationship between interior design and architecture in his work is profound. Furnishings and accessories are designed with an architectural perspective that is not limited by form but is expressed with a careful perception of interior space and its relationship to the exterior architecture. By interpreting architecture and redefining its proportions, Van Duysen creates objects of great purity and simplicity that still retain a concrete character and solid form.

"Protection is something very important that we all need and that is something that I want to translate into my architectural and design work" - Vincent Van Duysen
