La Tete dans les Nuages Belgium

Prices from €750 per Week
"People living in the upper parts of very high buildings have more intense sensations than other people. The hours, the seasons, nature are closer to them. The sun, the wind, the rain, the clouds have a much closer impact on them. They are both from the earth and from the sky." This sentence, originating in the constructive optimism of the thirties describes in part the specific charm of this conceptual apartment. Designed by a young but renown Belgian architect in the latter nineties on an existing unit from 1968 with a very clear idea in mind which he called maxFUS. Modular blocks on wheels are the walls inside the apartment. "Put everything needed for living and working in the walls to obtain maximum FUS meaning free undefined space. Open parts of the walls for living or working. Close the walls afterwards to re maximize FUS. Minimize furniture to maximize FUS (free unidentified space). Help to minimalism furniture by double or triple use: use benches for sitting and sleeping; use tables for eating and working; use balls for playing and sitting ."(Karl Vandenhende - Architect) In the media : - Week-end Knack-magazine on Architecture : 2002 On TV : - Fine Living Channel - USA : 17/02/2005 - 4 : 30 PM ( Eastern) - VTM ( Belgian private Broadcast ) : 2003 Feedback : View: incredible (100+) Situation: close enough (90) Ambiance: total enjoyment (100) Having visited Brussels on a regular basis for the last 4 years, meeting Peter & his apartment opened up another dimension regarding this fascinating city. The height (24 stories) not only lifts the soul but a view like this brings a being closer to the area & the elements. I spent most of my time playing music & absorbing the 180o view after a stressful day at work. Truly unique in every aspect. Thx. Greg Burrell - New Zealand - Holland Your apartment was fantastic, the view from all the huge windows was breath-taking. It was also very well situated, walking distance from the old city-center and buses and metro right outside. We didn't have any trouble to find parking place either.We liked the apartment so much, that many evenings we preferred to have dinner at home and watch tv or a film. And the bed, I have never in my life slept in such a comfortable bed. Regards Annina - Finland December 2005 Excellent value for the cost. Everything in the apartment was nice. We especially adored the espresso machine. Very stylish. Extremely inventive. Really liked the design. The view is incredible. We enjoyed the apartment very much and would be happy to have the opportunity to stay there again. Donna Schwisher - Kansas City Now that Jan and I are back at home, we wanted to send this brief note to tell you how much we enjoyed seeing Brussels from our temporary home in La Tete dans les Nuages. As we told you before, the experience of staying in such spare surroundings enhanced our perception and enjoyment of the richness which surrounded us outside. Beyond the aesthetic, you have done an excellent job of creating a comfortable and inviting living space. We enjoyed ourselves greatly. John and Jan Maggs - Antiquedealers - Conway - Massachusetts How cool is this? I send an email and within seconds the fax arrives. Thanks. I remember the days when I would have to plan a trip to Europe using International Reply Envelopes and things took months. We have returned from our delightful trip to Belgium and Paris. We thought your apartment was smashing. And the views were great. Don Christensen - UpperWest Manhattan Every thing is perfect, you have a very good apartment, I'm thinking to rent it more time even when coming alone for business... Dionisio, Luis - Lissabon - Portugal We were very comfortable and at home there and you seemed to have thought of everything. Kay Davidson La Pometa Apartment - Barcelona Just wanted to say we had a wonderful stay in Brussels and are absolutely in love with your apartment. We've stayed in many apartments in different cities and yours has been the best so far. My husband didn't want to leave to do any sightseeing...he said he had everything he needed - plasma tv, miele coffee maker and amazing views! In the future we would love to have a place of our own that incorporates many of your apartment's design elements.
