In the heart of Antwerp South, where art and culture embrace each other and where the Royal Museum of Fine Arts Antwerp (KMSKA) spreads its magic, a metamorphosis is taking place. A commercial building, an oasis of opportunity, is being revived. Blue Nash Diamonds, a treasurer of timeless splendour, will find its home here.
The renovation of this property is not just a refresh. It is a bold step towards creating a reception area and showroom that is not only functional but also makes an artistic statement. It is an ode to craftsmanship, a symphony of light, colour and texture, an ode to the sublime beauty of diamonds. Blue Nash Diamonds is all about creating the perfect setting in which their masterpieces come to life. An elaborate lighting study, like a choreography of shining stars in the sky, has been carried out to make every facet of the jewels shine. Here it is not only about seeing, but also about feeling, experiencing, and living. In the quest for serenity and sophistication, the design is steeped in ton-sur-ton elegance. Every colour, every texture, every nuance has been carefully chosen to create a serene backdrop on which the jewellery can shine like never before. The lighting rails, like invisible lines of perfection, weave seamlessly through the suspended ceiling, while the colours of the walls, curtains and even the lighting fixtures dance in harmony with the natural stone and oak parquet floor.
But this renovation is more than just aesthetics. It is a masterpiece of planning and precision. Every element, from the fibre-reinforced plaster to the painting techniques that breathe life into the walls, was created with deliberate intent. In the interior designer's studio, organic elements were shaped into works of art in their own right, seamlessly coming together on site to form an enchanting whole. The brains behind it all is Britt Van Namen, an interior designer at heart. Her timeless designs and clean functionality closely match the architecture of her projects. You will recognise her work by its minimalist simplicity and attention to the finest details. The passionate interior designer considers listening and empathising with her client's living space of paramount importance. She translates all his deepest desires and dreams into a design that suits the client perfectly. As a result, every project is unique and you will never have exactly the same as someone else. 
Your interior experience is central to Britt Van Namen. The design agency is known for its sleek designs where functionality and simplicity prevail. The common thread is therefore unity between light, form and space. The right materials and elaborate details complete her designs. Van Namen prefers to work with natural stone, her favourite being marble, for the reason that no stone is the same and some are a work of art in themselves. She also has a penchant for microtopping. "The material feels very natural and exudes a certain tranquillity," says the interior designer. From total projects, both renovations and new construction, with a high-end finish to giving interior advice and drawing out designs of any size, everything is supervised from A to Z by Britt Van Namen. Because there is only one point of contact, the entire design process and execution is greatly facilitated. The passionate interior designer does not shy away from any renovation or new design. It is a speciality in itself that Britt Van Namen masters flawlessly.
