"Victor Horta’s first independent commission from 1893 shows a younger architect working on a tight budget for a functional family home, yet already experimenting with stained glass, mosaics and an emphasis on natural light that presaged his later Art Nouveau masterpieces. Located in multicultural Schaerbeek, it offers an accessible introduction to Horta’s emerging style and sits near arts venues, a beer museum and Parc Josaphat." - Clodagh Kinsella
