Abstract
This book sets out to analyse and illustrate the various housing forms that exist in Brussels. This objective is undertaken from an architectural viewpoint by examining the spatial features of housing across the various phases of the city’s evolution, from its origin to its golden age at the turn of the 20th century, and on to contemporary practice. In addition to documenting the qualities of housing itself, the book investigates the mechanisms that drove housing’s evolution and the ways in which housing production has shaped the city.
