TRAVELING WORKSHOP in Brussels S-2016 Prof. Andrea Melgarejo Brussels’ Architecture: from imitation to the creation of a new style The goal of this workshop was to study the evolution of diverse architectural styles that developed in Brussels and, more specifically, to understand Art Nouveau in its architecturally diverse context. Brussels is teeming with architectural gems and provides a unique framework for students to study a wide array of architectural styles that spans from the clashing combination of Gothic, Baroque and Louis XIV styles to postmodern buildings. Through detailed observation, on-site sketch analysis and photographs, and discussions recorded as journal entries, students studied the architecture of Brussels throughout time, deciphering the intrinsic collage of diverse architectural styles of Brussels’ historical center.
