The forthcoming exhibition MOBILIA, at the Atomium in Brussels, that runs from February 12 till June 15 2014, focuses on the talent of architects whose function, because the late nineteenth century, has evolved beyond the style of buildings, to the creation of furniture and objects. Belgium hasn’t bucked this trend. Some emblematic movements of modernist architecture had been initiated, among others, by Belgian architects Victor Bourgeois (photo n°1) and Huib Hoste with Le Corbusier. They have been particularly active in the course of the 1st International Congress of Contemporary Architecture (CIAM) in 1928. Yet the story remains reasonably unknown to the basic public.
