The Belgian design label Stan Editions is launching a new collection
An ode to creativity, modularity, and the poetry of everyday objects.
Following the international success of the modular candle collection CANDL STACKS — sold notably at Galeries Lafayette, Printemps, the Louis Vuitton Foundation museum shop, Kunsthaus Zurich, Liberty London, and the Tate Modern — Stan Editions today announces the launch of a new line: a refined collection of ceramic vases and diffusers. With this expansion, the Belgian design brand reaffirms its mission: to transform functional objects into creative sculptures that enrich every living space.
A New Ceramic Collection
Stan Editions was founded in 2021 by Belgian designer Stan Verstraete. Through his creative platform, he explores how objects can be much more than utilitarian items. With his first collection, CANDL STACKS, Stan Editions introduced a new approach to candles: modular, stackable forms that invite everyone to create their own sculptural compositions. The collection’s colourful references to great masters such as Mondrian, Rothko, and Sottsass brought an artistic and refreshing dimension that quickly gained international attention.
The new collection of vases and diffusers presented by Stan Editions follows the same philosophy as the iconic candles: an object should transcend its basic function. Each vase and diffuser is a sculpture in itself, but also a modular element that can be combined to form new creative arrangements.
The ceramic forms — minimalist, refined, yet full of poetry — integrate effortlessly into various interiors. Each vase or diffuser can be used individually or assembled into a sculptural whole. The diffuser line is further enhanced by natural fragrances, developed through Stan Verstraete’s scientific expertise as a bioengineer. In this way, aesthetics and sensory experience come together in an innovative way.
What makes this collection particularly unique is its artisanal production in Portugal. Stan Editions has chosen to collaborate with local craftspeople who carry on a ceramic tradition passed down through generations. This choice ensures refined, authentic finishes while supporting sustainable production that celebrates craftsmanship.
A Brand with a Vision: Creativity is the True Luxury
At Stan Editions, it’s not just about design objects — it’s about the experience and energy they bring into the home. « We often don’t realise how much our environment influences us », explains founder Stan Verstraete. « A vase, a candle, a thoughtfully set table — these are more than just things. They’re signals that shape our mood, spark creativity, and give meaning to everyday moments ».
The new collection invites us to take a more mindful look at the objects around us. A carefully chosen diffuser can ground a morning ritual, while a playful arrangement of vases can quite literally bring a room to life. In this way, the home becomes a canvas for emotions, ideas, and memories.
What distinguishes Stan Editions is its belief that design is an invitation to be creative. Under the motto « Designed for you to be creative », the products are not static, but modular and collectible. They encourage play, rearrangement, and self-expression — turning the user into a co-creator of an ever-evolving work of art.
« For me, true luxury doesn’t lie in ownership, but in the space we leave for creativity», says Stan Verstraete. « Whether it’s rearranging a candle, using a vase in new ways, or letting a diffuser subtly transform a room, each of these gestures is a moment of expression — one that shifts both the interior and the state of mind ».
Stan Editions aims to be a brand that inspires, surprises, and connects — a creative companion that helps turn every interior into a personal universe.
