STUDIO HELDER is an Antwerp-based design platform, founded by Diana Keller and Brecht Baert in 2010.
We’ve designed interiors for private housing, showrooms and workspaces, we give advice, organise workshops and host exhibitions and events.
In our store we show objects we designed ourselves as well as furniture, jewelry, accessories and other items made by upcoming, talented artists from all over the world.
In everything we do, as diverse as our occupations are, some things are always present:
We care about subtlety and creativity. We’re endlessly fascinated by the little nuances and changes that turn something ordinary into an inspiring and beautiful object.
To quote the brilliant philosopher ‘Lorax’ from Dr. Seuss: “It’s not about what it is, it’s about what it can become.”

Fransje Gimbrère is a multidisciplinary designer, born and raised in Tilburg, the textile city of The Netherlands,
and graduated in 2017 from the Man & Identity department at the Design Academy in Eindhoven.
She observes and explores the world with profound critical thinking and an intuitive interest for the aesthetics of shape, color, image and material. This ability to monitor draws her into questioning the world as it is.
With her awareness of aesthetic quality, use of a variety of materials and a variety of mediums, Fransje has produced a multidisciplinary range of work.
Her concepts and designs often contain contradictory elements and a new playfull approach, resulting in a little idiosyncrasy or raw edge in every one of them.
