The story behind The Library is quite a personal one. After moving to Brussels and working from home for three years, my workday felt more and more deprived of daily, social interaction and the inspir-ing company of others. Simply put, I was looking for a place to work that wouldn’t make me dread Monday mornings; a place that would be cozy, friendly and good for business.
Welcome to The Library
Meet some of the people that contribute to making The Library everything I was looking for and read about their best ideas.
I know that my best idea was to go all in and open The Library.
What will yours be...?

Turning up in Brussels, last year, has pushed me to explore different streets, so I always make sure, that I don’t walk down the same one. When this happens I find avenues I never knew existed.

My best idea was to go beyond creating photographs and start to offer 360° crea-tive visual solutions at a whole new level.

My best idea was to start organizing group mindfulness training sessions myself instead of working for an
organization. Now I can fully develop and share my own vision.

My best idea was
the realization that you can only learn and
grow by giving things a try. No experience is a
failure, the only failure is to not try at all.

The Library Brussels is the first of a new generation of office hotels. It is conceived, designed and operated to be an antidote to the (truth be told) blandness of office life.
