Description:

EA. Text frz./engl. «Louis Herman De Koninck (1896 - 1984) was a Belgian architect and designer. One of the leading Belgian architects of the 20th century, De Koninck developed an original form of modernism and constructivism architecture. Not a theorician, L H De Koninck has rooted his design in the in depth understanding of popular architecture developed by farmers on the Belgian sea shore. He spent many years copying these natural design, and maintained a deep sense of them all his life even when expressed through the most modern concepts and breakthrough use of lights and space in the 20's.»
