Louis Bosny was an architect committed to social construction: social housing, hospitals and basic schools. Architect Jean Michel Degraeve has immersed himself in his life and gained access to archives that have enabled him to trace the history of an era, the singularity of a discreet man and his conceptual thinking translated into sober but creative architecture. The book is accompanied by two young photographers, Naef Hazimeh and Robin Nissen, who produce direct, sensitive black-and-white work on all these subjects. The afterword is by architect Georges-Eric Lantair.
