It will take place within the frame of the season that we organize in London between April and October 2017 under the title What about Belgian architecture?
 
The exhibition

entrer: presents five recentprojects reflecting the diversity of Wallonia and Brussels' architectural output, in an original and intriguing scenography - a wandering which will lead from the window to the lounge via chambers-: territorial setting-up, scale of the project, the diversity of generations and practices, orders and typologies, so many elements of context which testify of the know-how of the architects in front of specific situations.
