Would you add the architect credited with the contemporary art exhibition space Pierre Hebbelinck to this record or make a new record that related to this one about the original building complex? Boy, he has a nice informative website, too, by the way:

There's an axon and an aerial view of the Hornu site on it.

I would create a new record for the Pierre Hebbelinck work because it is new construction and is a large complicated structure unto itself.

Why do you think "masonry" isn't a "technique" on the AAT? Am I missing it somewhere?

Heather

Love the aerial view by the way!
