By Diane Hendrikx and Muriel Verbist

Almost all architecture is designed on commission for a client, and architects’ designs must always bend to the wishes and demands of that client. The situation is turned on its head, however, when the architect becomes his or her own client when building, renovating or redecorating their own home.

This book features 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 or her own vision on architecture.
