Property Information

"People living in the upper parts of very high buildings

have more intense sensations than other people. The

hours, the seasons, nature are closer to them. The sun,

the wind, the rain, the clouds have a much closer

impact on them. They are both from the earth and from

the sky." This sentence, originating in the constructive

optimism of the thirties describes in part the specific

charm of this conceptual apartment. Designed by a

young but renown Belgian architect in the latter

nineties on an existing unit from 1968 with a very clear

idea in mind which he called maxFUS. Modular blocks

on wheels are the walls inside the apartment. "Put

everything needed for living and working in the walls to

obtain maximum FUS meaning free undefined space.

Open parts of the walls for living or working. Close the

walls afterwards to re maximize FUS. Minimize furniture

to maximize FUS (free unidentified space). Help to

minimalism furniture by double or triple use: use

benches for sitting and sleeping; use tables for eating

and working; use balls for playing and sitting ."(Karl

Vandenhende - Architect) Location is in the very center

of Brussels exactly between the old city and the

European quarter.The neighborhood is multi-cultural

with many exotic and Belgian restaurants, various shops

and local specialities. Located just around the corner

are the best "Belgian fries" as voted by a leading

newspaper. In a twenty-five story apartment building

between the old and the new cities, La Tęte dans les

Nuages is located one hundred yards from the city's

efficient Metro. From the apartment it is but a 20-

minute walk to Brussels' deservedly famous market

square and only a 15-minute subway ride to the main

railroad station, which provides access to all of Europe.

Feedback :





View: incredible (100+)

Situation: close enough (90)

Ambiance: total enjoyment (100)



Having visited Brussels on a regular basis for the last 4

years, meeting Peter & his apartment opened up

another dimension regarding this fascinating city. The

height (24 stories) not only lifts the soul but a view like

this brings a being closer to the area & the elements. I

spent most of my time playing music & absorbing the

180o view after a stressful day at work. Truly unique in

every aspect.  Thx.



Greg Burrell - New Zealand - Holland



Your apartment was fantastic, the view from all the

huge windows was breath-taking. It was also very well

situated, walking distance from the old city-center and

buses and metro right outside. We didn't have any

trouble to find parking place either.We liked the

apartment so much, that many evenings we preferred

to have dinner at home and watch tv or a film. And the

bed, I have never in my life slept in such a comfortable

bed.

Comments : Excellent value for the cost. Everything in

the apartment was nice. We especially adored the

espresso machine.



Very stylish. Extremely inventive. Really liked the

design. The view is incredible.



We enjoyed the apartment very much and would be

happy to have the opportunity to stay there again.



Donna Schwisher - Kansas City





Now that Jan and I are back at home, we wanted to

send this brief note to tell you how much we enjoyed

seeing Brussels from our temporary home in La Tete

dans les Nuages. As we told you before, the experience

of staying in such spare surroundings enhanced our

perception and enjoyment of the richness which

surrounded us outside. Beyond the aesthetic, you have

done an excellent job of creating a comfortable and

inviting living space. We enjoyed ourselves greatly.



John and Jan Maggs - Antiquedealers - Conway -

Massachusetts



How cool is this?  I send an email and within seconds

the fax arrives.  Thanks.

I remember the days when I would have to plan a trip

to Europe using International Reply Envelopes and

things took months.



We have returned from our delightful trip to Belgium

and Paris.  We thought your apartment was smashing.  

And the views were great.



Don Christensen - UpperWest Manhattan





Every thing is perfect, you have a very good apartment,

I'm thinking to rent it more time even when coming

alone for business...



Dionisio, Luis - Lissabon - Portugal



Thanks very much for the use of your apartment while

we were in Brussels last week. We were very

comfortable and at home there and you seemed to have

thought of everything.
