Born in 1962 in Loreken, Belgium, Vincent Van Duysen is a well-known designer and architect whose projects range from large-scale architecture to product and interior design. Vincent Van Duysen obtained his degree in architecture from the faculty of Sint Lucas in Ghent. He first worked for Aldo Cibic in Milan and then for Jean De Meulder in Antwerp. Shortly afterwards, he decided to set up his own office in Antwerp named Vincent Van Duysen Architects. Since 1990, the office has grown to have more than 20 collaborators, working on prestigious international projects, product design for numerous brands and interior design.

The relationship between architecture, interiors and product design is the key to Vincent Van Duysen's work. His projects are never sterile minimalism but rather essential and pure without sacrificing function and comfort. His volumes and spaces are enhanced by the purity of form designed by light and modelled by materials. Apparently simple and linear projects conceal unexpected complexity with an attention to detail that is never excessive. He approaches all new projects, whether furniture or buildings, based on his past, attaining new goals through "subtraction", starting with numerous elements that are pared down to reach a proper balance.

Vincent Van Duysen has received many awards over the years. They include the Flemish Culture Prize for Design, inclusion in the AD100 list by the prestigious Architectural Digest magazine, and nomination as Designer of the Year in 2016 at the 25th Silver Edition of the Biennale Interieur in Belgium. His designs are contained in numerous prestigious publications and in several monographs entirely dedicated to his work. Since 2016, he has been the creative director of the Molteni&C and Dada brands. From 2018 to 2020, he collaborated with the Kvadrat artistic team to develop the Sahco brand.
