Four Flemish Architects

Over the past decade, the Flemish architecture scene has established a reputation as one of the most progressive in Europe with the innovative competition system set up by the Vlaams Bouwmeester (the Flemish government architect) proving particularly effective in raising the quality of public buildings and in allowing young talent to emerge. This series of talks is devoted to four young practices that have benefited from this sympathetic climate. For a British audience, the work under discussion should prove particularly relevant. As has been the case here, recent development in Belgium has been profoundly affected by legislation aimed at increasing urban densities while the fragmentary, private sector-shaped nature of the fabric in which these architects have been required to work bears close comparison with that of the UK.
