He is a designer with a high degree of genius, glamour, elegance, and knows the precise placement of things... And does it with a great deal of affection and love,... Teaching us that the key to great design is LOVING beauty and life.
Oh the temptation to open every drawer or cabinet and see his hidden treasures. Just imagining where Gert found the treasure and the endless possibilities of using his treasure. Lovely!
I lived across the street from this atelier for years and can’t believe I’ve never seen the inside of it before! Stunning, loved the video.

Love that huge painting of the dog over the couch. And how freaking cool is it that that chandelier once lived in a luxury liner. Fascinating.
Stunning fabrics. Gorgeous lampshade.
I have always been fascinated by Jim Thompson, his life and his silks. Thank you for bringing us another imaginative designer. Love his re-interpretated JT silks. Gert Voorjans teaches us to fill our life with infinite possibilities in every color and do the unexpected.
I look forward to your videos so much. When I see you've posted one, I make a lovely tea in my grandmother's teapot, sit down and take a few minutes out of my hectic life to enjoy the beauty and love that exudes from each video. Each visit is unique and different and you're so positive and lovely in each one. I'm currently in the process of renovating my house (converted from the first church in my town, built in 1865.) I've always loved mixing patterns and colors and this shows me that I can kick the "rules" out the door. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Excellent! Very enjoyable story. Thank you
I keep saying to myself that I am not a pattern person, but this man's designs bowl me over. What an eye for colour, pattern and textures. Brilliant.
Love the bold colors, fun statues and surprising furniture. What a design Hero!
Thank you so much Quintessence. If only these videos will last longer and longer and never finish.....:) Mr Voorjans's ways are absolutely wonderful. To combine beauty and elegance with light-hearted elements of fun, one has to be pure genius. Dank u!
