Belgian Houses: Belgium Property

Key Belgium Property + Architectural Residential Developments, Europe.

post updated 15 August 2025

Houses in Belgium

We’ve selected what we feel are the key examples of Belgian Properties. We aim to include residential buildings that are either of top quality or interesting, or ideally both.

We cover completed residential buildings in Belgium, new home designs and architecture competitions across the country. The focus is on contemporary houses in Belgium but information on traditional Belgian residences is also welcome.

We have 1 page of Belgian House selections with links to numerous individual project pages.

House GEPO, Wijgmaal
Design: OYO – Open Y Office

photo : Tom Janssens
The garden is the living room, the small lake the bathroom. The kitchen you’ll find next door. OYO chose for a minimalistic approach, omitting fancy details. There is no need of ornament. This and others choices result in a low budget home that sticks perfectly to the basic idea of living, functioning very open minded.

Zero Energy House Belgium, Lokeren, northern Belgium
Design: BLAF Architecten

photo : Stijn Bollaert
The allotment creates a condition that is both generic and specific, context and non-text. The house deals with this condition in an apparently indifferent way, whilst in fact it is questioning the allotment: it is reformulating the concept of the front, side and back facade by addressing the surroundings in equivalent ways, and it is consciously leaving any kind of fencing behind.
