(b Brussels, 17 March 1927). Belgian architect. He studied architecture at the Ecole Nationale Supérieure de la Cambre in Brussels, qualifying in 1951.

Throughout the 1950s and 1960s he built a number of small works, including houses, exhibitions and schools, as well as ecclesiastical projects, including churches and a series of buildings for religious orders. The best-known of these is the Centre Ecuménique de Dom Lambert Bauduin at the abbey at Chevetogne (1963–5).
