5 Picks from PHILIA Collection
Jeroen De Ruddere, a Belgian designer, views working with wood as a legacy. His lifelong passion ignited in his grandfather’s workshop, fostering a love for unique, functional designs.
Rooted in a creative family, Jeroen blends tradition with artistic exploration, transforming raw wood into beautiful creations. Trained by a leading woodturner, he refined his skills, mastering a craft that demands both patience and intuition.
De Ruddere draws inspiration from nature, the essence of humanity, and architecture. To him, wood is more than just material; it’s a living story. He embraces its texture, grain, and imperfections. His creations tell stories through form and texture, each piece celebrating nature in simple, timeless, tactile designs. His work is minimalist yet warm, sculptural yet usable, and elevates spaces with character.
Driven by passion and wonder, he makes his own mark on the design world. Jeroen De Ruddere’s designs are distributed globally by renowned design dealers.
