  • A tribute to Belgium's modernist heritage in 12 city walks along modernist gems, with detailed descriptions and photos, a clear map and some superb interiors shots of the unique designs hidden behind the façades
Full Description

Tourist Modernist is a tribute to Belgium’s lesser-known modernist heritage. In 2019 Gerlin Heestermans started the online heritage platform toeristmodernist.be to share her passion for beautiful modernist houses and buildings and draw attention to their heritage value and vulnerability. She outlined several architectural walks to put this special – often unprotected – heritage on the map. Now there is the Tourist Modernist guide, featuring Gerlin’s 12 favourite walks along modernist gems in cities such as Ostend, Liège and Brussels, but also Eeklo, Charleroi, Tournai and Mariakerke, for example. Each walk is comprehensively described and illustrated with photos of the exterior façades and a clear map; handsome interior images offer a glimpse of the unique designs hidden behind the front doors.
