Axel Vervoordt€™s intense curiosity has fueled his work as an interior designer, spurring him to explore and draw inspiration from cultures around the globe. He was first exposed to Eastern art and philosophy years ago, but today it has become the guiding principle in his work, particularly the concept of Wabi. Developed in the twelfth century, Wabi advocates simplicity and humility, the rejection of all that is superfluous or artificial. Through extraordinary photographs from Japan and Korea to Belgium and Switzerland, Vervoordt invites us to explore the elements that inspire him: natural materials and time-worn objects that evoke the essence of Wabi. Today, together with the Japanese architect Tatsuro Miki, Vervoordt carries the principles of Wabi into his remarkable interiors. As Vervoordt reveals how he infuses his current creations with a fundamentally oriental approach, interiors devotees will ga Review: Provokes wonder - I first purchased this book years ago when it first came out and returned it because the ink or something in it smelled horrible. Some of the other reviewers have called into question the quality of the book, the quality of the text, and/or the quality of the photos. So, with a bit of trepidation, I ventured once more into the land of Vervoordt's Wabi. I was glued to the book from start to finish. I find the text poetic at times, though a bit choppy. However, the one paragraph per sentence format slows me down as if I am taking a winding path through a dense forest. It can, perhaps, be savored, by someone who is not in a hurry to skim the text. The photos, though dark, have a quality of subtle light which comes through in various shades the way daybreak or sunset filters through the atmosphere of our planet. The matte quality of the paper enhances this. I would not call the book "pretentious" as another reviewer has stated. One might call it "pretending" -- to be in another time, or "to be" in a timeless way. This is a book about the "being" of things and how they affect the "being" of people. The book is an invitation to enter this being-ness. To allow oneself to "pretend" is to remove oneself from the "reality" of one world and step into another. And yes, a little section of your home or garden -- or all of it -- can be this way if you so choose. You don't have to import a barn from another country. You don't even have to go "Wabi". You just have to see with renewed eyes and old soul.
