  • An Amorphous Sushi box as Architecture’s Savior?
    Architecture has reached its limits! Intrigued (or driven to despair) by this quasi-prophetic summons, hordes of architecture students, architects, journalists and others descended on the catacombs of Columbia University in New York on February 28. That was the venue for a press conference convened to introduce VOLUME, a two-monthly periodical initiated by Archis, AMO and CLAB (Columbia University), in collaboration with graphic designer Michael Rock, and scheduled for release shortly.

    According to the invitation, VOLUME will become: Magazine, Object, Space, Event, Debate, Webcast, Consultancy, Talkshow, Travel and Surprises. Brought together by the conviction that 'Architecture Must Go Beyond Itself', the three partners - the offi…

  • Glossy with Content
    Some of Holland's most talked-about TV personalities have their own popular magazine. And now Rem Koolhaas has one as well. His handy-sized hip glossy isn't called 'Rem' or ® but 'Content'. But does it contain any 'content' or are we dealing with an obligatory personality cult?
    ArchiNed.nl – news
    The first flick through is a let-down. Reprints of previously published texts such as Junkspace and Miestakes interspersed with a countless cut-and-paste references to well-worn cultural icons: the Bomb, Lady Di, Mao, the US President, Saddam, Schwar…

  • Modest Koolhaas in Berlin
    To coincide with the November 14 opening of the exhibition CONTENT, devoted to the work of Koolhaas and OMA/AMO, the new Dutch Embassy also opened its doors for a press preview. Though the official opening takes place in March 2004, this was a chance to find out what the much-discussed project amounts to. ArchiNed was there.

    Set back from the quayside behind a tree, the building looks as though it's trying to efface itself. At first glance it looks like a simple cube of glass and metal framed by an L-shaped perimeter wall built almost entirely of aluminium sheet. Is that…

  • Trans-urbanism: Fiction or Reality?
    In late November, V2 held a two-day symposium devoted to 'trans-urbanism'. 'The city's substance is hardly material/architectural anymore. Public squares, market places, the lay-out of the streets seems no longer relevant to how the city is experienced,' the flyer announced. And though this statement was not the topic for discussion, a number of speakers wondered whether one could really speak about a new urbanism.
    ArchiNed.nl – news
    Architects, artists and researchers were asked to consider what methods might be developed and deployed to give form to new urbanism. According to Edward Soja (Professor of Planning at the University of California), physical segregation will increase…

  • Koolhaas Still for Initiates
    The Koolhaas show is in full swing: one pseudo-event after another is launched from Berlin these days and sent spinning around the world. One recent publication was supposed to explain Koolhaas to those outside the circle of initiates. It doesn’t. Allard Jolles about the media-uproar and the book.
    ArchiNed.nl – news
    The new Dutch Embassy in Berlin has already been dubbed 'The Revenge of Koolhaas'. More than ten years ago, Koolhaas stormed out of the jury assembled to decide the future of Potsdamerplatz. In Welt am Sonntag he recently recalled that 'dramatic mome…

  • Rem's Junk in Mies' Space
    It can’t have escaped anyone: the first major exhibition devoted to Rem Koolhaas and OMA/AMO is now on show in the Neue Nationalgalerie in Berlin. Big, plenty and perplexing. Rem Koolhaas lets loose.
    ArchiNed.nl – news
    Content is an exhibition about Rem Koolhaas and, more precisely, by Rem Koolhaas, as is often the case with exhibitions devoted to living architects. The visitor is offered a glimpse inside the architect's office. How do OMA projects evolve? What fas…

  • Koolworld
    ‘Rem Koolhaas: architect, iconoclast.’ Thus reads the photo caption on the cover of Wired magazine. It may be the June 2003 edition, but worth while drawing attention to its contents. Here’s an account of my visit to ‘Koolworld’ where Rem Koolhaas directs a matinee performance entitled ‘The Ultimate Atlas for the 21st Century’. The rest you’ll find on the Wired website.
