Caldarium is a proposal for immersion at the heart of a section of the Royal Greenhouses of Laeken. This emblematic building of Belgian heritage, created in 1873 by Alphonse Balat for King Leopold II, houses one of the largest collections of exotic plants in the world. The aim is not to highlight the exceptional nature of this building, but to interrogate its political status throughout history, as well as the role it still occupies today.
