It is to the Swiss architect Michel Polak, with the collaboration of Alfred Hoch that this splendid mansion is entrusted to. Michel Polak is already well known in Belgium: one of his major works consisted of the famous "Residence Palace " (1928) and the dental institute George Eastman in the Leopold Parc.
