‘When Tribù contacted me, I
immediately had the feeling they
were giving me a lot of freedom to
express myself. In all my designs I
start from an intense emotion. There
was always a lot of enthousiasm and
dedication to the development of
my ideas at Tribù. I experience them
as a company that wants to produce
rational objects, but always with a
sense of poetry.’

‘Working together with Tribù was a
very positive experience for us. First
of all because of their belief in our
designs, secondly because of the
way the project was handled with
a lot of involvement, preciseness
and seriousness, which was very
stimulating.’

‘The fruitful collaboration with
Tribù since more than 20 years,
demonstrates our mutual vision
on design. To us, design is more
than beautiful shapes, more than
trendy styling, it is a continuous
search for the essence of products.
Good products are the result of the
right combination of creativity and
technical know-how.’

‘Tribù asked me to add a female
touch to the collection. There are a
lot of things in my work that we have
in common, a sense for materials,
colours and textures, the attention
for the smallest detail and a passion
for research and experimenting,
keeping precisely in mind how a
Tribù product should look like.’

‘Tribù’s style fits well with what I’m
working towards in my architectural
projects. No spectacular loud
furniture, but a lasting, timeless line
with an eye for detail. We share
a love of pure forms and flowing
lines and dare to go a step further
technologically.’
Merckx & Maes

‘Our approach is a constant
search for the perfect balance
between proportions, materials
and technology. We always aim for
pared down forms with strong lines,
in combination with natural materials
and attention to detail. We found
the same kind of philosophy at
Tribù. They have a strong sense for
tradition and craftsmanship, without
losing the functional aspect.’
