As every summer, BMA team is taking a break. Our offices will be closed from July 21 to August 15 – time to recharge and invite a bit of lightness. This year, we decided to dream a little further: imagine Brussels dotted with swimming pools. Imaginary oases to remind us that summer is the perfect time to cool down, slow down… and rethink the city differently.

So, while your swimsuit drips dry and the pavement heats up, we invite you to dive into our topics on our website. These are themes that we actively develop and which offer a cross-cutting view of our interests: civil society involvement, adaptive reuse, the public space, and soft power… so many subjects to (re)discover at your own pace, between two laps.

And if you prefer to explore the city in sandals, our tour guides remain online to guide you through recent architectural, landscape, and urban projects.

We wish you a wonderful summer, full of sunshine, mental swims, and urban discoveries. See you again from August 15!
