The stars of Brussels: Stoclet Palace
















Stoclet Palace,
279-281, avenue de Tervuren,
Woluve St Pierre by HOFFMANN in 1910-12
The Stoclet Palace is considered sometimes as the first Art Deco work because of its geometrical shape which is not very Belgian although the Belgian Art Nouveau has become more and more geometrical after 1903.
It was built by Hoffmann, a viennish architect who created the Wienner Werkstate. This palace was designed until the ultimate detail including the tea spoons, the bathrooms,... The paintings were designed by Klimt himself.
