We believe that design is a dialogue conversation between space, light, and the stories they tell

Founded by Alicia Finet – interior architect, and Rémi Mathieu – Food designer and creative director, our work transcends traditional boundaries, merging the sensory experiences of hospitality with the art of contemplation.

Contemplate embodies a philosophy of slowing down, inviting the world to pause and reflect. We draw inspiration from the essence of slow food and slow design, embracing natural materials that echo authenticity and connection. Each project is a narrative crafted with intention, where every detail serves as a chapter in a larger story.

As Belgians, we carry a rich tapestry of cultural influences, seamlessly weaving them into our projects. Beyond interior architecture, we envision creating immersive experiences through creative direction and set design, possibly organizing food retreats in inspiring settings that ignite the imagination. In our practice, intuition and thoughtful distraction guide us, allowing focus to emerge from the atmospheric interplay of shapes, colors, and light.

 We strive to create serene and evocative spaces that invite contemplation and connection, transforming everyday moments into extraordinary experiences
 Join us in this exploration of design, where each project becomes a canvas for reflection and inspiration.
