    Merchant mentality in The Promised Land

    Architecture 3.0 or Architecture is there to be destroyed
    ‘He’s not showing any buildings,’ whispered the person next to me a little too smugly. After all, Willem-Jan Neutelings had shown during the Architecture 2.0 symposium that you can talk architecture without showing buildings. But was NAi director Ole Bouman talking about architecture on January 10?

    ‘Do you want to be relevant?’, was Ole Bouman’s rhetorical opening. ‘Yes’, nodded his audience. Of course, agreed Bouman, and he then showed them five ways to be relevant.  - You keep doing your work like you’ve always done- You try to be contemporar…

    2ABBeijing
    Every self-respecting country has an Architecture Biennale of its own nowadays. In Beijing (China) the 2ABBeijing (Architecture Biennale Beijing) took place from 26 September to 6 October. As is usually the case with architecture biennales, the themes may have been big, but most of the presentations paid no attention to them whatsoever.

    Thin Line between being Radical and Naive
    Take one of the assigned plots in Antwerp, Belgium and create a design for the headquarters of the Flemish nationalist political party Vlaams Belang. Or draw a concept for it’s rather extreme Islamic opponent AEL (Arabic European League). How should architects operate in such political, ethnic or religious matters? Is there a role for them at all? Is architecture ‘neutral’ and only about aesthetics or is it acceptable that spaces and buildings propagate implicit or explicit messages? If so, to what extend? Maybe architects even can assist in bridging the gap between different ethnic and socio-political groups?

    These and other questions were at stake at the international design seminar INDESEM, organised by the 'bouwkunde' student association Stylos annually, sometimes every two years. Eighty students took part, half of them Dutch and half of them from abro…

    More Sign Than Space, Las Vegas Revisited
    'I am not and never have been a post modernist. This is a misunderstanding.” Robert Venturi and his wife Denise Scott Brown visited the Netherlands to promote their latest book ‘Architecture as Signs and Systems’. At the TU Delft they gave a lecture to a large audience and held a seminar with Ph.D. students. At the Netherlands Architecture Institute they were interviewed by Harm Tilman (editor in chief of 'de Architect’) in front of a sold out crowd and had a debate with the Dutch architects Sjoerd Soeters (Soeters Van Eldonk Ponec architecten), Liesbeth van der Pol (Atelier Zeinstra van der Pol), and Haiko Meijer (Onix).
