À la lumière du découpage parcellaire de la grande propriété terrienne, cette recherche propose un regard descriptif original sur l'urbanisation brabançonne au sein des processus de métropolisation à l’œuvre autour de Bruxelles durant le 20e siècle et s’inscrit dans un corpus d’études en urbanisme en Belgique.
À partir d’une description morphologique des transformations des grands domaines fonciers ce travail interroge leur influence dans la forme contemporaine du territoire urbanisé. L’enquête est menée sur le territoire du Brabant wallon, historiquement composé de grands domaines fonciers qui appartenaient à la noblesse, à l’Église ou à des propriétaires industriels et bourgeois. Se pose alors la question des formes d’urbanisations produites par les grandes propriétés et en quoi elles engagent les conditions urbaines actuelles.
La lecture proposée de la construction de ces conditions spatiales et matérielles se fait à travers l’investigation de six cas d’études de grands domaines et la création de représentations cartographiques. Les grandes structures parcellaires sont examinées afin de déterminer si elles ont joué un rôle constitutif dans la formation et les transformations de l’urbanisation au sein des processus de métropolisation.
La thèse est que l’évolution des conditions urbaines du Brabant wallon a été influencée par la recomposition parcellaire des grands domaines et que ces conditions constituent aujourd’hui un ensemble paysager, urbain et métropolitain spécifique. Cette recherche propose une lecture descriptive et interprétative de la situation actuelle de la ville-territoire en Brabant wallon qui éclaire un état contemporain et ouvre des perspectives pour les enjeux de son développement futur.
