Ilse Cornelissens and Tim Van GelovenLocated in a renovated townhouse in
historic central Antwerp, Graanmarkt 13 is a multi-floor concept store,
restaurant, and hotel/event space. It is considered a mecca for timeless
quality in cutting edge contemporary design, fashion, and gastronomy.
Each floor of Graanmarkt 13 expresses the visual minimalism and
carefully curated sensibility of its founders, Ilse Cornelissens and Tim
Van Geloven. This beautifully illustrated book, created in collaboration
with Rosa Park and Rich Stapleton, editors of the cult lifestyle
magazine Cereal, is a celebration of the vision that Graanmarkt 13
embodies. The authors, whose understated aesthetics make them ideal
partners in telling each floor's story, explore the evolution of this
very personal project, including the renovation by renowned Belgian
architect Vincent Van Duysen, and the choices that support the founders'
underlying dedication to craftsmanship and sustainability.
