With the Drop Seats, Frederik explores the boundaries of usability. The seats are composed of a thin top and chunky, sturdy, and robust legs reminiscent of a drop shape. Two separate pieces become one entity with a minimal connexion. What intrigues about these benches is the discomfort one experiences when “falling” into the seating position. However, this contrasts sharply with the relaxation one feels once seated. The comfort of these Drop Seats takes on a surprising twist. With the Drop Seats, Frederik challenges traditional limits. The combination of the delicate top and sturdy legs, along with the challenging comfort, creates a unique aesthetic and an intriguing contrast.
About; A designer and craftsman who follows his intuition to create exceptional pieces. Intrigued by the power of shapes and their ability to transform spaces and evoke emotions, he infuses his handmade works with a strong sense of personality. While primarily working with wood at present, he remains open to exploring other materials in the future.
Frederik's designs seamlessly blend functionality with artistic sensibility. They reflect his passion for craftsmanship and his ability to give form to emotions. Prepare to be captivated by his timeless creations as he pushes the boundaries of traditional design and allows his artistic vision to flourish. Frederik van Humbeeck showcases how the fusion of craftsmanship and individuality can lend unique meaning to objects in our surroundings.

Galerie Philia
Galerie Philia is an international contemporary sculptural design and art gallery representing emerging and established designers and artists. The gallery is the brainchild of two brothers who share a lifetime passion for art, literature and philosophy. Their distinct academic background sets them apart from their peers, as it sees them following a rhizomatic and transcultural approach in the way they select works. This involves combining elements from multiple cultures in what becomes a network of harmoniously interconnected roots, ultimately revealing the beauty of each unique creation. The gallery’s non-hierarchical curation sits apart from the ephemerality of trends and focuses instead on the true aesthetic quality of the piece – alluring and timeless. Unlike others, Galerie Philia does not focus on a single style – whether minimalist, organic or raw – but rather embraces heterogeneity. The Galerie Philia takes pride in discovering new talents, providing them with multiple international platforms to showcase their latest creations. As well as propelling the newest generation of 21st century collectible design, Galerie Philia also works with internationally known design artists. Galerie Philia has a strong international presence, with galleries in Geneva, New York and Singapore. In addition to their permanent spaces, the gallery organizes temporary group exhibitions and artists residencies in first-class locations around the world.
