The choice for clay plaster at the offices of the Ordre des Architectes – advocates for the architecture profession for French-speaking Belgium – was not only an aesthetic choice. Because of its sound absorbing qualities, clay plaster is a well-suited material to make working environments more comfortable. At the same time, the OA deliberately chose an ecological material that fosters circularity and re-use. The clay used in this project is local and comes from Brussel’s excavation sites.
