33 contemporary industrial buildings to discover in Wallonia. The thirty-three contemporary industrial buildings selected for this book perfectly illustrate the economic dynamism and cultural influence of Wallonia and Belgium. They are used for diverse industrial functions, such as logistics, manufacturing, research, offices, commerce and services, and are mostly found in science parks or industrial estates on the outskirts of cities. These works of art or "cathedrals of the modern era" are the work of talented engineers, architects and artists from Wallonia, Belgium and abroad, and demonstrate that entrepreneurs can also appreciate beauty and the environment. The architect and traveller André Stevens has cris-crossed Wallonia in search of these "cathedrals" which he has photographed and written about with the same sensitivity which informed his descriptions of fortified farmhouses in the Andes, Arabian citadels and the cities of the East.
