Designed by L’ESCAUT, Cheval Noir, Aging brewery redeveloped into artistic residences with parrallel zinc-coated block is located in Brussels, Belgium. Split into 31 housing units and studios, the former Hallemans Brewery has been coupled with a new residential block which is drastically and deliberately differentiated from the original complex by its memorable zinc facade.
Whilst the two buildings are kept in dialogue with one another by the use of numerous footbridges, the architects never felt the need to imitate what was already there and as such designed an abstract tower with a completely different flavour.
