The MaaK Design Studio, which is based in Linter, Belgium, is a furniture firm that deals in designs that span various classifications. Whether the design is ultramodern or midcentury or even slightly Scandinavian, the company doesn't pigeon-hole itself into one form of creativity. Instead, it experiments with different aesthetics while adhering to one basic signature style, one that involves minimalism.
Founded by product and furniture designers Robbert Ramaekers and Rogier Rensen, the MaaK Design Studio is comprised of everything from benches to platters. Their latest creation, the ONO bench, may have been inspired by a Victorian couch, but it far from vintage-looking unlike the Duo Cabinet, which incorporates an old wooden cupboard with a new one.
The MaaK Design Studio creates sophisticated pieces with flair.
