Espace Aygo has created an experimental hub dedicated to creativity: the collective of young artists and designers has repurposed a derelict building in Brussels, from where they operate at a crossroads between design, architecture, and everyday life.

Both roommates and studio-mates, they give shape to everything that surrounds them in a radical collective and domestic experiment. Their space is constantly evolving—entirely DIY, with a raw edge and youthful spirit that defines their work. Together, they create their own whimsical world and are not afraid to stand out.

Through their collaborative practice and focus on community, they demonstrate the power of collectivity and social infrastructure to push the discipline forward.
