HOW IT WORKS
Nothing here is complicated. A good relationship never is. The path from your first question to your first experience at the place follows five simple steps… and none of them should feel like a process.
STEP 1
Discover
You found the place. You read something, felt something, or arrived here by accident and stayed a little longer than expected. That’s enough. That’s where it begins.
STEP 2
Check availability
Before you write, take a look at the calendar. The Atelier and the Venue each have their own rhythm. Seeing what’s open on the days that suit you will make your first message easier to write.
STEP 3
Clarify
What draws you here? A space for an event. An atelier for deep work. A facilitation programme. A curious visit to the shop. No intention is too small. Take a moment to name what you’re looking for (even approximately).
STEP 4
Reach out
Write to us. There is no form that feels like a ticket. No automated reply that pretends to be human. A real person reads every message and responds with the care it deserves.
STEP 5
Co-create
From your first message, we build together. What the place can offer and what you need will find each other. In a conversation, at whatever pace suits you.
We do not promise speed. We promise attention.

ABOUT
Une brick dans le ventre did not begin with a business plan. It began with a conviction, that the right place, in the right hands, with the right intentions, can change something in a person. Not dramatically. Quietly. The way a good conversation does, or a morning spent building something with your hands, or a meal taken without hurry.
For years, that conviction lived inside NaturallyDifferent™, a facilitation practice built on play, emotions, and the belief that every human being carries within them exactly what they need to grow. The work was real. What was missing was a home for it.
Une brick dans le ventre is that home. A permanent address in the heart of Wavre where what was once abstract becomes tangible, and what begins as a visit sometimes becomes something more.
A RELATED ENTITY
NaturallyDifferent and Une brick dans le ventre share the same roots, the same values, the same conviction about what people deserve. They operate as distinct entities. What they hold in common is more important than what separates them.

JOBS
There are no open positions at this moment.
But we know that the right people rarely arrive on schedule. If you feel something when you read about this place, if the values here feel like your own, if you recognise in these pages a way of working you haven’t quite found elsewhere, then we would like to hear from you.
Tell us about your path. What you’ve done, what you believe, and what draws you here. No formal template. No covering letter that reads like all the others. Just a message that is honestly yours.
THE PEOPLE WHO THRIVE HERE
They care genuinely. Not as a professional posture, but as a way of being. The quality of a guest’s experience matters to them personally.
They are comfortable with slowness. In a place that refuses to rush, they understand that presence is not a constraint, it is the whole point.
They take responsibility. The place runs on trust. The people who work here carry it with the same care as the guests who visit.
They find joy in the details. The right cup, the right word, the right moment to be quiet. They notice. That is rare, and it matters here.
