INTERVIEW AO76 The AO76 showroom, located close to the very charming Belgian city of Gent, looks like an art exhibition. The ground is covered with dry leaves blown in from the forest and there are several kinds of sculptures in the room, all tinted in shades from the current collection. We meet Patricia Vandemoortele, the design manager of AO76. Patricia is a woman who is full of energy, with a contagious smile and the belief that less is more. She loves wearing vintage pieces and believes in the importance of working in a pleasant environment. This is why she chose this beautiful place to set up the A076 headquarters. 65
