Description

"Huize Zonnebloem" in #Antwerpen was designed in 1900 by Jules Hofman. This semi-detached bourgeois Art Nouveau house features three storeys, one wide bay, and a narrow annex with a striking porch. Ornamental swirling lines in limestone and stucco, ironwork, and the original ground-floor window draw from Victor Horta. The porch's Florentine arches come from Ernest Stordiau, the side bay window from Paul Hankar, with a noteworthy asymmetrical wrought-iron gate.
