Architecture and Planning
Creating architectural stories where design meets purpose and cities find their soul.
About us
"Le propre de l’Homme est sa conscience de l’Autre" — Humanity's essence lies in its awareness of others. At architectesassoc+ we believe that architecture should reflect this consciousness, creating spaces that honor the planet we share today and the future we bequeath to tomorrow’s children. Our studio embraces a holistic approach to design. We understand that architecture is not just about energy efficiency or eco-friendly materials. It’s about making a meaningful, positive impact—zooming in to enhance each user’s experience and zooming out to enrich the community and environment at large. In a world where half the population lives in urban settings, the challenges we face are immense. Yet, these challenges also present opportunities. Opportunities to rethink, reshape, and reimagine our cities as collective works of art—places where diversity is celebrated, where rules guide but do not constrain, and where real human connection and creativity are paramount. Our team of talented architects and designers draws from a deep well of on-the-ground experience and innovative thinking. We thrive on collaboration, working hand-in-hand with engineers, contractors, urban planners, and artists to create spaces that are as flexible and novel as they are functional and enduring. Together, we embrace the complexity of our modern world, crafting architectural solutions that reflect the intricate tapestry of today's society. At architectesassoc+ we are committed to designing with empathy and purpose, ensuring that our work contributes to a more sustainable and inclusive future for all. Join us as we continue to explore and expand the possibilities of architecture, one project at a time. Discover more about our vision and projects at www.architectesassoc.be 🔗

PROJECT UPDATE: THÉMIS | Building permit granted ✅ We’re proud to announce that Thémis has officially received its building permit. Located along avenues Bourgeois and Cauchy, this large-scale urban development - currently in progress - is being developed for AG REAL ESTATE and brings together a diverse and ambitious programme. In close collaboration with DDS+, who are leading the residential component, we're designing the 19,500 m² of office space - a key element of the project. This office volume will be fully covered by a photovoltaic canopy, reinforcing the project’s focus on energy performance and long-term sustainability. Altogether, Thémis includes offices, housing, retail, a day-care centre, community spaces, and extensive landscaping, with 33,000 m² above ground and 14,000 m² below. Engineering partners: EOLE, DUSS, and BSolutions. A major step forward for a project aiming to shape a connected, inclusive, and future-oriented urban block. #architectesassoc #belgianarchitecture #brusselsarchitecture #themis #brussels #buildingpermit

ROYAL MINT | Pacheco Boulevard 32, 1000 Brussels The ROYAL MINT project has officially entered Provisional Acceptance. The substantial refurbishment of the former Belgian Royal Mint into a multifunctional hub—including office space, co-living, and horeca - is a fact. This transformation exemplifies our commitment to sustainable requalification. The design reimagines the interior with a light-filled timber structure, while carefully preserving the strong character of the brutalist volume. The modular atrium façades allow for long-term functional flexibility, while the overall approach significantly reduces the project’s carbon footprint - proving that adaptive reuse can be both ambitious and responsible.

◄ PROJECT HIGHLIGHT: ELIA Service Center in Kruisem Today we officially announce the start of the construction of the Elia Service Center in Kruisem! A forward-thinking project that reflects Elia's commitment to sustainability and innovation, the center features a passive office building, and a low-energy warehouse and workshop… all designed with modular, prefabricated elements to minimize waste and reduce the environmental footprint. With water infiltration systems, green roofs, and bio-based materials like thermally treated wood using the 'Shou Sugi Ban' technique, this project sets a new standard for low-carbon construction. The design maximizes efficiency while ensuring that every detail, from the energy systems to the materials, aligns with a long-term vision of sustainability. Stay tuned for more updates as we move forward with this project. 🤝 Client: Elia - Structural and Services Engineering: Arcadis - Contractor: STRABAG Belgium #architectesassoc #belgianarchitecture #brusselsarchitecture #eliaservicecenter #kruisem
