Fourteen Belgian architecture studios photographed by Marc Goodwin
British architectural photographer Marc Goodwin has documented the interiors of 14 architecture workspaces across Belgium.
Highlighting studios from across the country, the collection is the latest in an ongoing series by Goodwin, the founder of photography studio Archmospheres, in which he documents architecture offices worldwide.
Among the studios featured in this latest edition are Antwerp-based Studio Okami, Ghent-based Oyo and Brussels-based Brut Architecture and Urban Design.
According to Goodwin, the collection revealed a noticeable contrast in atmosphere between architecture studios in Belgium's capital, Brussels, and the rest of the country.
"I was struck by the sharp contrast between Brussels and the rest of the country – both in atmosphere and vibes," he told Dezeen.
Other trends noted by Goodwin include a "global shift" in the use of an adaptive reuse approach, which includes these Belgian studios along with those documented in previous series in Portugal and Taiwan.
"The last series was in Portugal, which of course has a very different context and character," Goodwin said.
"Yet there's a strong connection: everywhere I go, I see studios embracing adaptive reuse and transformation."
"That global shift is one of the most inspiring and encouraging things to witness," he added.
