The Cabinet of Curiosities A HoD Kinky Salon

A sensual salon and practical playground, stewarded by House of Delphine, where curiosity leads the way and consent holds the frame. You are invited whether you only want to listen, bring a single question, or try something hands-on. The day is organised in two complementary parts so you can choose the doorway that suits you: a hosted afternoon of conversation and anonymous confessions, and an evening of guided, non-sexual exploration of role, power and surrender.

Afternoon — Curious Confessions (14:00–17:00)
We open with a soft, curious salon where stories and questions find a respectful audience. Expect short sharings from experienced voices, small-group exchanges and facilitated circles where we wonder out loud together. Bring a question or an anonymous confession, listen, ask — nothing is required of you except curiosity. Piero Flor curates this part with a careful, trauma-informed presence that invites honest, open conversation.

Evening — Curious Possessions (18:30–22:00)
When the house reopens in the evening we move into guided practice: short, gradual experiments in power, role and surrender. We explore three archetypes — servant, pet, object — through simple positioning, tasks, handling and attention. These experiments are deliberately bounded: underwear stays on, there is no penetration, and everything happens with clear negotiation and ongoing consent. You may take any role, switch, or simply observe as the room becomes a temporary collection of owners, servants, pets and objects.

Both parts stand on the same principles: tactile imagination, clear boundaries, and the freedom to choose your level of participation. This is not a play party; it is a held, pedagogical environment where we practice consent, language for desire and the ethics of embodied exchange.

Who holds the space
House of Delphine is a sanctuary for sensual liberation and radical curiosity, inspired by the disobedient spirit of Delphine Seyrig. Piero Flor and Lavinia co-curate the Cabinet: Piero offers gentle, trauma-aware facilitation and holds the room so others can open; Lavinia, an architect-turned-kink-facilitator, designs the atmospheres and practical experiments that make new relational possibilities visible. The team includes guardians, stewards and co-hosts who steward safety, flow and care throughout the evening.

Why come
Come to reconnect with sensation and to speak openly about curiosities that rarely get a proper conversation. The salon supports embodiment, experiments in relational power, and a challenge to social norms around pleasure. Expect practical aftercare, clear negotiation tools and sign-posting to longer-term support if you want it.

Practicalities
- Age: 21+. This is an adults-only event.
- Dresscode: make an effort—wear something that makes you feel alive and s.exy; the dresscode is an invitation to play with identity and presence.
- Substance policy: this is a non-substance, non-alcohol event. Anyone under the influence of alcohol or drugs will be refused entry or sent home.
- Phones: to protect privacy and presence, phones are not allowed during the event. Professional photography is managed with care and only with explicit consent.
- Dinner: there is a break between parts; bring your own meal or order together from nearby spots.
- Accessibility & belonging: LGBTQI+ and BIPOC community members are especially welcome. If you have access needs, a chronic illness or anything we should reasonably know to support you, please contact us when booking.

Safety, consent and limits
We centre consent and discretion. Afternoon sharings remain private to the room. Evening practice uses explicit negotiation, ongoing check-ins and the option to pause or stop at any time; a no needs no explanation. Underwear remains on, and no penetration takes place. The House provides pre-event guidance, a safety-and-intimacy guide, and aftercare resources; professional follow-up options are available for those who want them. Our values and the charter that shapes our culture are public at: https://houseofdelphine.be

If you come curious and with respect, you will find a held, playful and courageous space to explore desire and relational form without pressure to perform.
