A group comprising a shop-and-house and the former "Tanghe" printing works, designed by Ernest Apers (Roeselare). No. 16, an Art Deco shop-house of 1932, has a carefully detailed, expressive elevation in red brick and black tiles, a leaded-glass oriel, a corner pier carried up above the wooden cornice and a preserved three-part shopfront. Nos. 12-14, an extension of 1935 combining the printing works and a second house, are plainer but in a matching style, with a rectangular concrete oriel and a recessed porch with rounded corners lit by a fanlight of round glass blocks.
Translated from the French original.
