About me

Atelier Martis
Atelier Martis is a young Belgian design studio founded by Reinout Van der Straeten that specializes in unique furniture and jewelry designs. With a passion for materials and a keen aesthetic sense, the studio blends raw materials and textures, retaining a touch of the organic in every piece.
Reinout navigates the delicate balance between nature’s offerings and human craftsmanship, finding a grounding harmony in this interplay.
This aesthetic delivers tranquility and contentment through emphasis on texture, repetition, and soberness: Focus on texture heightens your tangible awareness, repetition brings comforting predictability, and soberness focuses attention on the essence. Together, these principles form the foundation of every design, each piece handcrafted to proudly display its artisanal heritage. Drawing inspiration from Modernism, Brutalism, and underground movements like Gothic or Grunge, Atelier Martis’ style is best described as ‘New Stone Age’ or refined brutalism, with a strong focus on tangibility.

When we say handcrafted,
we mean handcrafted!
Every piece I create is meticulously handcrafted in my workshop in Belgium, near Ghent. From the initial design to the final finishing touches. This ensures a very high quality and a personal touch in every single piece.
