    Neurath’s open-source urbanism
    Stroom De Haag recently staged an exhibition on the work of Austrian economist, sociologist and philosopher Otto Neurath (1882-1945) entitled After Neurath – The Language of the Global Polis. Under the motto ‘better late than never’, here follows an introduction to the grandfather of open-sources.
    ArchiNed.nl – news
    After Neurath is an event that seems to grow as spontaneously as the urban development envisaged by Neurath. For two years now – one year longer than planned – Stroom has been programming activities about this idealist. I visited the most recent exhi…

    Dynamic Colour-Space
    A section of the Groninger Museum is devoted to the exhibition ‘P. Struycken: Digital Paradise’. Peter Struycken is present everywhere – in the exhibited work and in the interior. Famed for his way of working with colour, structure and form, the artist became interested in interdisciplinary collaboration at an early stage. In 1994 and 1999 he was commissioned by former director Frans Haks to design colour palettes for the interior of the new Groninger Museum building.

    After studying at the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague from 1956 to 1961, Peter Struycken (1939) painted in a figurative style. He was fascinated by the differences and similarities in visual reality. A row of trees interested him more than a single…

    False Flat
    Published this August was the book False Flat. Why Dutch Design is So Good by Aaron Betsky and Adam Eeuwens. A book as a book is meant to be, says design connoisseur Timo de Rijk.
    ArchiNed.nl – news
    In the same week as the presentation of the bulky design book False Flat, five prominent foreign curators concluded that Dutch art is in a state of slumber and is of no international importance. The reason, they claim, is the harmful effect of the Du…

    Casa da Musica, Porto
    The ‘Casa da Musica’ by OMA was to have been the architectural icon for Porto, European Cultural Capital in 2001. But protracted work on the foundations and unforeseen weather conditions delayed completion of the building. In contrast to the Palace of the Soviets in the 1930s, when similar conditions transformed a communist icon into an enormous swimming pool, Porto persevered in its pursuit of ‘Glokoolhaasination’. Work on Casa da Musica will finish in July 2004. A report on the project.
    ArchiNed.nl – news
    Situated next to Boavista Plaza, one of Porto's busiest roundabouts, Casa da Musica is almost invisible despite its strong formal expression. This is caused in part by the trees on the roundabout, from where the building is best viewed. And it is par…

    On the invitation of Government Architect Jo Coenen, four teams have spent recent months drawing up proposals for the Delta Metropolis. Monday December 9 saw the presentation of the four proposals for the area ‘formerly known as’ Randstad.
    ArchiNed.nl – news
    The four schemes are a response to questions put last September by Donald van Dansik of One Architecture, leader of the Delta Metropolis Design Workshop. The key question was whether, and if so how, the Delta Metropolis can be defined as a single ent…

    MVRDV's New Autumn Collection
    Hagen Island is a residential area designed by MVRDV in the new suburb of Ypenburg just outside The Hague. The housing looks hip, as if it was made for a film. Amidst the endless sea of new dwellings stretching out from The Hague, the layout here seems innovative. So plenty of reason to take a look behind the scenes at life on the set of this film.
    ArchiNed.nl – news
    The houses huddle stiffly, like a colony of migratory birds, on the muddy flats under a stark autumn sky. A wonderful sight, the perfect setting for a film by Alex van Warmerdam (director of de Noorderlingen, een halve eeuw later). An architectural h…

    Westland forever
    The design assignment for the final round of the Urban Design category of the Prix de Rome was to draw up a development strategy for Westland. Last Tuesday the four final candidates presented their plans. Although the task was a fictitious one, the response was so imaginative that the intended discussion dealing with the necessity of restructuring large-scale agricultural areas in the Netherlands mainly concerned future possibilities for Westland.
    ArchiNed.nl – news
    Westland is an area of 14,000 hectares south of The Hague known mainly for its area of glasshouse horticulture, which accounts for 5,000 hectares. Pressure on the area is immense. Villages and towns in and around Westland are all seeking to expand to…

    InfoArcadia - an exhibition on information
    Untill 22nd of April the Centre for Plastic Arts in The Hague, Stroom, shows the exhibition InfoArcadia. This exhibition deals with the different forms in which information can be represented, through graphics, schemes, charts and many other interfaces.Information design, as a (graphic) discipline concerning the clear and understandable representation of flows of information, has become a specialism constantly gaining importance. InfoArcadia researches the various approaches this new discipline uses and explores the role of the computer and new media in relation to the 'older' (but in some cases far more efficient) forms of communication like the conversation or the book.
    ArchiNed.nl – news
    Exhibiting itself is one of the media which till recently were available next to the book, the map, the diagram, the lecture, the conversation and similar forms of communication. In the information age the flows of information we digest everyday have…
