Maisons de maître (and other buildings)

Balcony in Schaerbeek

During my early wanderings around the city, I’ve been taking photos of maisons de maître, trying to capture the definitive style of these rather lovely houses.

Many of the most distinctive examples can be found in the district of Schaerbeek, to the north west of Brussels city centre. Schaerbeek’s townhouses exhibit the classic Flemish style, whilst some boast very individual Art Nouveau fascias.

I’ll be adding to this as and when I take new photos.
