In “Working in the Ugliest Country in the World,” Belgian architect Ludo Bekker reflects on his career as an architect and city planner, based on the conviction that architecture should primarily serve people and society. Together with Eric Min, he has written a richly illustrated book on social housing, heritage reuse, resident participation, and sustainable design—not as abstract theory, but based on concrete projects that often went against the grain. What does it mean to truly listen to users? How do you shape a city that excludes no one?

This book is a plea for compassionate architecture and an invitation to reshape the “ugliest country” together. Not a classic architectural monograph, but a personal and engaged story about nearly five decades of caring construction and urban renewal. IN DUTCH!
