About this person
In 1959 he won a Pro Arte Christiana design competition, drawing further praise from the Jesuit art theorist Geert Bekaert and the Benedictine liturgist Frédéric Debuyst, which launched him on a 20-year career. His growing deafness made communication with clients problematic. One of his most prestigious designs was for the Faculty of Arts of the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven (1971-72).
