Matisse 16 advances: 156 new homes anchor a sustainable mixed-use neighborhood in Evere

Site works have started for Matisse 16 in Evere, Brussels—a 42,000 m² development by BESIX RED, designed by Neutelings Riedijk Architects with AXENT Architects.

The project places housing at its core with 156 apartments—ranging from compact studios to family-sized units—prioritizing daylight, large windows, and outdoor space via terraces and loggias. A private green courtyard creates a quiet heart for residents, while offices and retail bring daily amenities and street-level activity.

Strategically positioned between the European institutions and NATO, the site’s mobility hub enables low-car lifestyles. The overall approach combines architectural quality with sustainability and liveability, forming a cohesive vision where homes, workspaces, and public life reinforce one another as the project progresses.
