In the footsteps of architects in Brussels is a series of books on architecture in Brussels that, in the form of a monograph, shows the work of architects who left their mark on the built landscape of Brussels after the First World War. With the series we want to draw the attention of architects whose work is less known to the general public, but who deserve recognition because their production has a close connection with Brussels. Each volume focuses on a special trail that reveals both the built heritage and the little-known and researched aspects of Brussels’ urban history.
The first volume presents the journey of Stanislas Jasinski (1901-1978), which stretches from the 1920s to the 1970s. He is the author of many projects, especially in Brussels and the surrounding area. His work is a reinterpretation of Brussels based on the theme of the apartment building as a typology for the evolution of the city. Most of his production is well preserved and clearly visible in public spaces. In addition to his architectural production, Jasinski left us numerous articles and important texts that testify to his continuous commitment, throughout his life, to the debate on architecture and urban planning. Stanislas Jasinski’s route is undeniably worth discovering and appreciating.
Stanislas Jasinski (known as Sta Jasinski) was a Belgian modernist architect born September 18, 1901 and died January 30, 1978. He is the brother of the decorator Stéphane Jasinski.
