Palais de la Folle Chanson, Art Deco apartment building in Ixelles, Belgium.

The Palais de la Folle Chanson features a semi-circular rotunda at the corner, extending through all eight floors of the concrete and granito structure.

Antoine Courtens, a former student of Victor Horta, designed this residential building in 1928 during the development of luxury apartments in Brussels.

The entrance hall displays polychrome marble flooring and copper pillars, reflecting the architectural preferences of wealthy Brussels residents in the 1920s.

The building contains two apartments per floor, each featuring spacious living areas, with the top floor offering a reading room and smoking area.

Located at Rond Point de l'Etoile, the structure stands out with its starry campanile crown, similar to the design of Hotel Haerens.
