Brussels Style: Townhouses with Exposed Ironwork on the Facade

An Art Nouveau townhouse on a quiet residential street in Brussels, with a frontage of only seven meters. The facade is composed of light-colored stone and exposed ironwork: iron beams extend from the stone wall like plant stems, supporting a curved bay window, and the ends of the ironwork curl into whiplash curves; large window panes are divided into soft arcs by thin iron frames. The facade is light and transparent, contrasting with the brick townhouses on both sides. Avoid: hiding the ironwork behind the stone, a closed facade with only small windows, using a large number of colored tiles, the building being detached without neighbors on either side.

布魯塞爾一條安靜住宅街上的新藝術街屋,面寬只有七公尺。立面由淺色石材與外露的鐵構組成:鐵樑像植物的莖從石牆中伸出,撐起一整面彎曲的凸窗,鐵件的末端捲成鞭索曲線;大面的窗玻璃被細鐵框分成柔和的弧形。立面輕盈而通透,和兩側的磚造街屋形成對比。避免:把鐵構藏在石材後面、立面封閉只有小窗、使用大量的彩色瓷磚、建築獨立而沒有左右鄰房。
