Francisca Hautekeete Architectuur

Francisca Hautekeete, an architect in Ghent, graduated in 1998 from the Sint-Lucas School of Architecture in Ghent and started her own studio in Deinze. From the outset, the focus has been on creating refined, minimalist architecture with an emphasis on livability and the quality of the living experience.

In 2015, the architectural practice moved from the office building designed by her for Tallieu & Tallieu in Deinze to an Art Nouveau building on Fortlaan in Ghent. The historic property near Citadel Park was formerly the family home of Jan Hoet Sr. and later an art gallery. This move allows Francisca Hautekeete to combine living and working.

Today, Francisca and three fellow architects design and build around ten projects each year, with both the exterior and interior usually fully designed by her.
