Royale Belge, Functionalist office building at Boulevard du Souverain, Belgium.

The Royale Belge building features a cross-shaped design with corten steel exterior and bronze-colored windows, rising 50.8 meters above ground level.

Constructed in 1967 by architects René Stapels and Pierre Dufau, the structure served as headquarters for insurance company Royale Belge until its merger with AXA in 1999.

The building represents late 20th-century functionalist architecture in Brussels, emphasizing efficiency through its geometric forms and structural elements.

The renovated complex now includes Mix Brussels, offering hotel rooms, dining establishments, wellness facilities, and coworking spaces across six floors.

The surrounding landscape integrates ponds and green spaces designed by Jean Delogne and Claude Rebold, connecting the building with the nearby Sonian Forest.
