Frisian art and vintage

The atelier is located in the private garden of Joop, Rik, and Iebele, who alternate their time in the nearby bungalow on the same property with their residence in Amsterdam.

Joop, Rik, and Iebele have worked for many years in both the creative and fashion sectors, and their love for Frisian art, vintage furniture, and design pieces is reflected in the Atelier: the ceramics are from local potters. You’ll also find designs from Flinke Vintage in Hemelum, and the various sheepskins come from the only sheepskin tannery in our country, Van Buren from Bolsward. These local finds are effortlessly combined with works by the Belgian artist Eva Claessens and the Amsterdam artist San Ming, glassware from Finnish Iittala, and Moroccan carpets from Paul Lelieveld.

Amenities and Comforts

Atelier Gaasterland is primarily suitable for two people; if you wish to come in a different group size, an exception can sometimes be made. Please contact us regarding this. Unfortunately, pets are not allowed.

In the atelier, you’ll have all the comforts you need; there’s a spacious living area with various seating options and a wood-burning stove.
