Bâtiment de l’Institut Saint-Luc — Mons

An imposing building marking the start of Avenue Reine Astrid, the Institut Saint-Luc was built in 1928 in the Art Deco style. In red brick, it is characterised by highly structured facades: openings arranged in bands, concrete lintels and sills extended by yellow-brick bands that stress the horizontal, and a rounded facade at the corner of Rue du Trouillon Voûté. A projecting tower housing the staircase and slightly protruding brick pilasters between the bays emphasise its verticality.
