Belgium's Best Designs is a luxurious overview of the best Belgian design objects since 1900; they are presented through text (in English, Dutch and French) and photos. Iconic designs such as Louis Herman De Konick's Cubex kitchen (1930) and Maarten Van Severen's .03 chair (1998) are included, as well as pieces by Jules Wabbes or Henry Van de Velde. A large number of the selected 50 objects are quite recent, such as Le Banc by Xavier Lust (2000), Bram Boo's Overdose Desk (2007) or Sylvain Willenz Torch lighting (2008). The selection was based on the top 10 lists of over 50 Belgian designers and design experts, collectors, journalists, and design lovers. These personal lists of favorites, often containing surprises and hidden gems, have been included in the back of the book. This addition, together with the refined design, the informative texts, as well as the various photos (some of which from archives), are what make this book the perfect gift for connoisseurs and enthusiasts of Belgian design from the 20th and 21st centuries.

In 2012 Luster published Belgium's Best Buildings, an elegant and easy-to-use pocket guide for architecture fans and for everyone who is curious about architecture in Belgium. That same year, the book was nominated as 'One of the most inspiring architecture books of 2012' by Architectura.be and The Word Magazine presented it as one of 'Six of Belgium's Best Travel Guides'. The concept of the book hasn't changed for this new edition: starting from the Top Ten lists of renowned Belgian architects and architecture critics, it presents the best Belgian buildings (completed after 1900) with a photo and a short text in English and Dutch. Also the lists of the architects are included the book. This new edition contains over 20 new lists, 15 extra buildings, and of course a slightly different selection. The result is an interesting mix of well-known contemporary buildings such as the MAS museum in Antwerp, historical must-sees and less obvious buildings, such as a modernist chapel or an architect s house. AUTHOR: Hadewijch Ceulemans studied Dutch and English literature and linguistics and journalism in Antwerp, Groningen and Utrecht. 100 colour images
