| dc.description.abstract | How did architects imagine the functioning of government? How did senior civil servants and politicians envisage modern architecture? In the interwar period, when the modernist architectural movement was struggling to obtain commissions throughout the Western world, the Belgian government supported the modernist cause with a daring – but never realised – plan to build a large complex for its ministerial administrations. | |
