With the text le modern home by Edmond Dutry, illustrated with furniture by Dokka-Möbler, Knoll and V-form, the text La Jeune Architecture Belge face a son avenir by Léon-Louis Sosset with architects such as J. Wybauw, J. Thiran, Roger Thirion, Jacques Dolphyn, A. Noterman, P.

The rest is lots of advertisements, an article on commandos, le 4e Salon des Métiers des arts and a rapport on the 1957 edition.


A reference copy only, corner creased but mainly bent about 3 cm parallel to the spine. Still an interesting period piece that has at least some relations to the world expo of 1958.
