Text description provided by the architects. This 40 apartments building in downtown brussels was commissioned by a real estate developer. The building is part of an ensemble of 3 existing building with very different characteristics and is situated between 3 streets (Fabriques/Senne/Anneessens). The surrounding existing buildings are very motley, regarding heights, functions, typologies. The project proposed to enhance the neoclassical building in order to restore the urban order by joining the size of the building next door. This raise consists of a dark volume, reminder of the new building located at the opposite corner of the complex and of the central part enhances. The new parts are therefore designed with a specific expression of unification of the complex.
