Vincent Van Duysen was born in 1962, in Lokeren, Belgium and graduated in architecture at the Higher Institute of Architecture Sint-Lucas, in Ghent. From 1986 to 1989 he worked in Milan and Brussels. He opened his own studio in Antwerp, in 1990 focusing on architecture and interior design. The relationship between interior design and architecture in his work is profound. Furnishings and accessories are designed with an architectural perspective that is not limited by form, but is expressed with a careful perception of interior space and its relationship to the exterior architecture. By interpreting architecture and redefining its proportions, Van Duysen creates objects of great purity and simplicity that still retain a concrete character and solid form.

Augusto | Sofa
If home is the heart of daily life, the Augusto sofa is where one finds home. The evolution of luxury continues as creative director Vincent Van Duysen transforms the prior iteration of Augusto into a versatile modular system, blending timelessness with contemporary flair. In a way only he can, Van Duysen aims to further capture the enduring essence of Augusto through modularity, introducing innovative curvilinear pieces that foster connection.
Retaining its classic aesthetic, the 2024 Augusto sofa embodies the welcoming spirit of Molteni&C, offering both comfort and sophistication. The modular system includes lateral and central elements for enhanced functionality, and chaise lounges and islands as relaxation zones. From compact spaces to spacious rooms, Augusto provides stylish solutions tailored to diverse needs.
“For this new sofa, we have accentuated its architectural and graphical presence. The proportions are generous with more voluminous elements, a clean departure from previous work with Molteni&C”
