Maison Émile Janson

The Maison Émile Janson is an Art Nouveau residence in Brussels featuring a symmetrical facade with ornamental stone details and tall windows distributed across three floors. The building displays characteristic curved lines and flowing forms typical of the period, evident in both the overall design and the sculptural stonework.

Architect Jacques Obozinski designed the building in the early 1900s as a modern residential structure. It emerged during the period when Brussels was a center of Art Nouveau innovation, blending new construction techniques with established Belgian building traditions.

The house embodies Art Nouveau principles in its rooms, where everyday living spaces merge with artistic details that elevate the home. Walking through, you notice how the design balances practical comfort with visual refinement.

The residence is located in the Solbosch district near Avenue Louise and is easily accessible by public transportation. The surrounding area has restaurants and sits close to a university campus, giving visitors nearby options for food and other activities.

The stonework features intricately carved patterns created with mathematical precision that visitors often miss. This careful craftsmanship reveals the technical skill Belgian artisans brought to the construction.
