Description

Modern urban terraced houses or row houses emerged in Europe from the 17th century onwards. Usually two to three storeys high and with a garden at the back, they formed the traditional urban block. In Brussels, this bourgeois form of housing took on a particularly varied and inspiring form – including the well-known Art Nouveau residences – and forms the DNA of the city to this day. This publication analyses 100 selected examples illustrating the emergence of the terraced house and its further development in other forms of housing. The result is a broad panorama and a history of the architecture and development of the city of Brussels with its particularly heterogenous cityscape. This expanded edition comprises a new chapter by Kristiaan Borret, the city's former bouwmeester. Ten new case studies were added and the content was updated. A project index facilitates quick navigation. With a photo essay by the well-known Belgian photographer Maxime Delvaux All plans have been drawn in standard scales especially for the publication An atlas of exemplary historical and contemporary housing typologies
