Remy Meijers (46) is vandaag precies 25 jaar geleden cum laude afgestudeerd aan de afdeling Architectonische Vormgeving: interieur- en meubelontwerp van de Hogeschool voor de Kunsten in Utrecht. Tientallen projecten, een eigen meubelcollectie en twee monografieën verder is hij een vaste waarde in de Nederlandse ontwerpwereld. In zijn ontwerpen streeft Remy steeds naar een optimale balans, naar een eindresultaat waarin alle elementen op elkaar zijn afgestemd.

Because there are a number of legal restrictions, creating an interior design for a national monument is always a challenge. This also goes for this four-storey mansion, with a view of one of Leiden's city centre parks. In his design Remy tried to underline its strong points. The result is a contemporary interior with panel doors, ceilings, floors and materials that do justice to the authenticity of this house.

In his projects, Remy regularly uses Cosentino products. The Spanish company is the world market leader in the production and distribution of innovative surfaces for architecture and design. Both parties have now finally found each other. Remy and Cosentino recently decided to enter into a partnership. This means that Remy, on the photo with key account manager Floris Driessen, will be working with Cosentino's materials. It is not yet known when the first results of the collaboration will be shown.

An interior that reflects the industry in which Tronios is active. Remy had this in mind when he was commissioned to design the company's new headquarters in Almelo. Somewhat robust, because Tronios is a major player in the lighting and sound industry. Remy has selected raw materials such as black steel and uncut wood. Virtual spaces have been created with ceiling elements, rugs, furniture and luminaires, so that the interior still feels intimate.

That the renovation of the villa in Wassenaar, designed by architect Henk Wegerif in 1925, would take a lot of time, was already clear when Remy accepted the commission last year. The project will take some time to complete, but the 3D impressions recently rolled off the drawing board. Striking is the use of materials that each have their own pattern, such as wood and natural stone. 

In the work of interior designer Remy Meijers (1974), all elements are perfectly in place. His interiors are therefore almost self-evident. As if they have always been like this. But there’s a lot more going on than meets the eye. Behind the apparent simplicity of his interior designs lies a coherent and comprehensive vision honed continuously over two decades. Meijers’ oeuvre includes not only interiors, but also architecture, accessories and furniture. According to Meijers’ philosophy, these are not separate elements, but rather complementary parts of an intelligible whole.
