With his sophisticated selection, Christophe Glorieux aims to bring comfort, joy and zest for life to interiors. It is the place to go for a unique piece or for a larger, tailor-made project.

The architects want to restore the relationship between the building and the sea, and to include its spacious surroundings in their overall design. The fact that Belgian Tab Architects and Spanish Barozzi Veiga came out on top should not be surprising. Together, they previously won the competition for Abby, the new museum in the Groeninghe Abbey in Kortrijk, as well as for the Jewish Museum of Belgium in Brussels. While Barozzi Veiga specialises in museums, designing context-related spaces with a pure identity is one of the Ghent design firm&#8217;s strengths. With this new project they want to make a high-quality total experience possible again, and to restore the Grand Casino&#8217;s grandeur.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"2560\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-16215\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Casino-Knokke-Heist_02_\u00a9-Onirism-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Casino-Knokke-Heist_02_\u00a9-Onirism-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Casino-Knokke-Heist_02_\u00a9-Onirism-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Casino-Knokke-Heist_02_\u00a9-Onirism-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Casino-Knokke-Heist_02_\u00a9-Onirism-2048x2048.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pared-down_confrontation\"><\/span>Pared-down confrontation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In its proposal, the design team hark back to the original, modernist design that won the young architect L\u00e9on Stynen the competition in 1925. For instance, the northern part of the Kursaal, including the glazed fa\u00e7ade of the main hall, will be reconstructed in keeping with its initial qualities. There, a sense of spaciousness has been preserved quite well with the central chandelier hall and symmetrically arranged halls. The design team is restoring the relationship with the sea by bringing back the original transparency of the north fa\u00e7ade. This will re-establish the relationship between the sea, the dyke and the interior. The fluidity of forms and horizontal character of the south fa\u00e7ade also build on Stynen&#8217;s three-dimensional aesthetic language. The pared-down confrontation between old and new feels logical, but at the same time it asserts itself strongly enough. Respect for the past goes hand in hand with high-quality architectural interventions.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1829\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-16218\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Casino-Knokke-Heist_03_\u00a9-Onirism-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Casino-Knokke-Heist_03_\u00a9-Onirism-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Casino-Knokke-Heist_03_\u00a9-Onirism-768x549.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Casino-Knokke-Heist_03_\u00a9-Onirism-1536x1098.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Casino-Knokke-Heist_03_\u00a9-Onirism-2048x1464.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"New_art_hall\"><\/span>New art hall<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>On the south side, the architects bring order to the disparate spaces created in successive renovations. The organic design blends seamlessly with the purity of the north side. It envisions the room containing Ren\u00e9 Magritte 1953 mural &#8216;The Enchanted Domain&#8217; as a central reference point, while the south wing will become the linking structure between the original building and the underground extension with the casino. The car park, nightclub, restaurant, wine bar and supply zone will also be sited underground, so that the built area above ground scarcely increases. Generous patios will reflect ample daylight inside. The integration of an art hall with three multifunctional exhibition halls enhances the Grand Casino&#8217;s artistic DNA, with permanent works by Magritte, Jean Lur\u00e7at, Keith Haring and Paul Delvaux, among others. With this renewed, quirky interpretation, this cultural temple is primed for a glorious future from 2026.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1664\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-16221\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Casino-Knokke-Heist_04_\u00a9-Onirism-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Casino-Knokke-Heist_04_\u00a9-Onirism-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Casino-Knokke-Heist_04_\u00a9-Onirism-768x499.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Casino-Knokke-Heist_04_\u00a9-Onirism-1536x998.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Casino-Knokke-Heist_04_\u00a9-Onirism-2048x1331.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1422\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-16224\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Casino-Knokke-Heist_05_\u00a9-Onirism-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Casino-Knokke-Heist_05_\u00a9-Onirism-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Casino-Knokke-Heist_05_\u00a9-Onirism-768x427.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Casino-Knokke-Heist_05_\u00a9-Onirism-1536x853.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Casino-Knokke-Heist_05_\u00a9-Onirism-2048x1138.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With prestigious architectural projects such as One Carlton, the Heldentoren, La R\u00e9serve and soon the Grand Casino, Knokke-Heist is knitting a glorious future into its rich past.
