- Living in Liberty after 1968: Charles Vandenhove versus Lucien Kroll
- Abstract
- Not only did Belgian architects Vandenhove and Kroll study together, from 1951 onwards they also worked together for a while. Afterwards, they each developed their own and totally opposite oeuvre, in the case of Vandenhove based on a search for autonomy, in Kroll’s case based on participation. By means of student housing projects they both realised after 1968, Christophe Van Gerrewey reconstructs the positions of Kroll and Vandenhove – positions that are exemplary for the evolution of twentieth-century architecture, and for the relation between the architect and his audience.
