Setting and,
philosophy.
Just steps away from La Maison de Chestret, la place de Bronckart rises up, a real jewel of Liège architecture. Its listed buildings of various styles still abound in secrets. A space where time seems to have stopped, it has been home to several historical personalities who shaped Belgian history. The enigmatic Maison de Chestret takes its name from a woman freed from the shackles of nobility: Léonie de Waha de Chestret. This philanthropist built her legend on her fight for women's education.
This quarter, frequented by Liège's greatest thinkers and liberals, is not short of wonderful stories to tell. It is a veritable interactive work of art.
Inspired by this aura, Aurore has appropriated this work of art concept and devised an unprecedented, even more interactive project. That is, to sleep in an art gallery and be free to purchase the most beautiful objects that adorn the apartments.
