Brussels-Capital Region – 19 municipalities, a mosaic city to display at home
The Brussels-Capital Region is not just another municipality: it is the living whole formed by 19 municipalities which, placed side by side, compose a unique mosaic city in Europe.
Here, administrative borders touch, cross, and fade in daily life: one lives in Schaerbeek, works in Etterbeek, meets friends in Saint-Gilles, crosses Ixelles, breathes in Watermael-Boitsfort, goes out in Brussels City, returns through Jette or Laeken. Brussels is rarely experienced in a single point; it is experienced as a network of addresses, routes, and memories accumulated across several municipalities throughout a lifetime.
Display the minimalist map of the Brussels-Capital Region, it is choosing to representthe whole of Brussels: its density in the center, its residential neighborhoods, its parks, its more popular areas, its heights and valleys, its historical traces and its contemporary impulses.
This unique silhouette tells the story of successive moves, encounters, urban rituals, study periods, years of work, and the places that matter in different corners of the city.
Hanging on the wall, the map reminds us that Brussels is not just a simple address: it is a personal geography made up of multiple municipalities, constant comings and goings, and a shared collective identity.
