Belgian Architects and Their Houses
17 fascinating portraits of leading Belgian architects accompanied by photographic essays of their family homes. Industrial lofts are juxtaposed with architectural gems from the 1950s; contemporary homes in the countryside with minimalistic mansions in the city Almost all architecture is designed on commission for a client. And the architect's design must always bend to the wishes or demands of that client. The situation is turned on its head, however, when the architect becomes their own client when building, renovating or redecorating their own home. All of a sudden, the architect has the freedom to give full expression to his/her vision on living and the humble home is transformed into something of a calling card. This book contains 17 such calling cards: 17 extensive reports on the lofts, apartments or houses where leading Belgian architects such as Bob Van Reeth, Juliaan Lampens, Peter Swinnen and others live. Each report is accompanied by a text in which the architect expounds his/her own vision on architecture. AUTHOR: Muriel Verbist began her career in advertising. She has worked for the past six years as an initerior stylist in the magazine sector. 217 colour illustrations
Best buildings
"Best Buildings - Belgium is the second, extended and revised edition of the guide Belgium's Best Buildings that was first published in 2012. It is an elegant and easy to use guide for architecture fans and for everyone who is curious about architecture in Belgium. Starting from the Top 10 lists of renowned Belgian architects, 94 buildings completed after 1900 were selected and are presented in this new edition. It features a surprising mix of buildings, from award-winning contemporary projects (such as a crematorium that stands in a seemingly endless landscape), over historical must sees (such as the Stoclet palace), up to less obvious buildings (such as a Brutalist church in West-Flanders) and breath-taking architect's homes"--Back cover.
