The ARCS collection by Belgian duo Muller Van Severen is a celebration of simple, elementary shapes and the intensity of colors in an object. ARCS is a series of lighting designs and decorative objects formed by a continuous chain of curved arcs that form a single element, using spatial volume to create a scalloped silhouette.

"For us, the collaboration with HAY is the perfect opportunity to offer our work to a large audience but also to a young audience," says Muller Van Severen who wants to democratize art and design to make it more accessible.

ARCS objects are made of steel and are available in a choice of bright colors or with a mirror surface that reflects and magnifies natural light. The different variants and mounting solutions give ARCS a versatile quality that makes it easy to integrate into most interior spaces.

Formed by a continuous chain of curved steel arcs creating a volume, the ARCS lampshade plays with light and form. With its elegant silhouette featuring deep contrasts, the ARCS lampshade is available in several colors or with a mirror surface.

Muller Van Severen

It was in the spring of 2011 that a new collaboration between wife and husband was born in the Belgian design universe: Muller Van Severen was founded by the duo of Belgian artists Fien Muller and Hannes Van Severen.

Son of legendary designer Maarten Van Severen, Hannes Van Severen is a sculptor born in 1979 in Ghent, Belgium. A student on the campus of the LUCA School of Arts ’Sint-Lukas, he first obtained his master's degree in sculpture and then went on to obtain a second master's degree in sculpture at the Higher Institute for Visual Arts in Sint-Lukas.

Fien Muller is also an artist, born in Lokeren, Belgium in 1978. Between 1995 and 2000, she studied photography at University College Ghent - Faculty of Fine Arts (KASK) and obtained her Masters in Photography. She then studied sculpture on the campus of the LUCA School of Arts ’Sint-Lukas in Ghent and obtained a master's degree in sculpture.

In their quest for interesting furnishing objects, the duo sits somewhere between design and sculptural art and draws on their passion for architecture and materials. Known for their varied colors and pep, their collections of designer furniture and lighting can be seen in both private and public spaces.

Muller Van Severen has worked in partnership with prestigious galleries such as Kreo in Paris, Matter in New York, or Andreas Murkudis in Berlin. From their greenhouse transformed into a house-studio in Ghent, the creators collaborate with various and prestigious brands such as HAY, Petit H or Hermès.
