Historique
Cette maison a été construite en 1968 pour l'industriel Marcel Delcourt par l'architecte américain Richard Neutra, selon son principe de la maison de prairie, imbriquant fortement architecture et nature. Elle consiste en une longue maison vitrée de plain-pied, couverte d'une terrasse sur laquelle un miroir d'eau reflète les baies d'un étage partiel. La maison, dernière réalisation de Neutra, est restée dans son état d'origine.

History
This house was built in 1968 for the industrialist Marcel Delcourt by American architect Richard Neutra, according to his prairie house principle, strongly interweaving architecture and nature. It consists of a long single-storey glazed house, covered by a terrace on which a water mirror reflects the openings of a partial storey. The house, Neutra's last work, has remained in its original state.
