'Brussels by Locals' guidebook came together after Marina Bautier, designer and founder of the eponymous brand, received the building permit approval for a new project: the construction of two apartments on the roof of the store building, accommodation for short-term stays. Marina wanted to provide future guests with tips from locals, in particular creatives she knew from the cultural sector and the food scene, insider advice that would welcome visitors to the city. All recommendations in this guide offer individual and genuine views on one of the most diverse capitals of Europe.
