  • TEAMWORK – Coastal zone in Almere Poort
    Adri Duivesteijn, alderman for physical planning and housing, opened the exhibition TEAMWORK in Museum De Paviljoens in Almere on October 31. It’s called ‘teamwork’ because the local authority invited three property developers to present proposals for the development of the Coastal Zone in Almere Poort, and because Museum De Paviljoens set three teams of artists to work with the same programme.

    My drive to Ut­recht last Sa­tur­day took me along the A12 mo­tor­way. Strewn thought­lessly along both sides of the road­way were miserable-looking boxes de­co­ra­ted with si­gnage that cla­mou­red for at­ten­tion, in­ter­rup­ted oc­ca­sio­nally by …

  • Soeters in the Wrong
    The Prix de Rome architecture competition reached its conclusion last Thursday as the candidates in the final round presented their projects to the public. The presentation was to have been followed by a discussion with academics and developers intended to shed light on the relationship between architecture and entertainment. As it turned out, events took a different course. Architect Sjoerd Soeters expressed his agitation with the Prix de Rome design assignment and, in the process, roundly attacked the entire Dutch architecture education system.

  • The Giant Gets Ready
    After the earlier press offensives 'The Giant Awakens' and 'The Giant Stands Up' (the Giant in question being the Haarlemmermeer), on May 17 it was the turn of 'The Giant Gets Ready'. On the basis of a cool 1000 dwelling units at a density of 30-35 units per hectare and The Ten Commandments for Vinex-Free Building, the architecture firms - Soeters Van Eldonk Ponec, MVRDV, Erick van Egeraat Associates and Steven Holl - were given two months to come up with designs for the Toolenburg South area. Fedde Reeskamp attended the presentation.

  • Follow the flow
    To get them accustomed to the changes ahead, passengers arriving at Rotterdam's Central Stationlast week were given a picture postcard of the new station, while Alsop Architects from England presented their master plan for the station and surroundings. If you were to emigrate now and return in fifteen years, Rotterdam Central will seem like another planet.

  • Cosmic and Theatrical
    Hendrik Wijdeveld is presented as a man of the cosmos in the exhibition 'Plan The Impossible' at the NAi. He was an isolated romantic who opposed the city as a machine for production and consumption and who returned to elementary systems found in the universe and in nature. An agreeable subject, since it's wonderful to see how chaos is eliminated with simple models and all-in-one diagrams.

    Although Wi­j­de­veld (1885-1987) was per­sua­ded to take on earthly com­mis­si­ons (for hou­sing, in­te­ri­ors and gra­phic work) du­ring his long life, the ex­hi­bi­tion shows only his uto­pian work, and of that, just the high­lights of this so­mew…

  • Metropolitan World Atlas
    In addition to the trusty Bosatlas and all the other atlases that show maps of each country and continent, there's now an atlas that focuses on the city: the metropolis, that is.

    The Me­tro­po­li­tan World Atlas presents a huge amount of data in an easy-to-understand way thanks to the book's good gra­phic de­sign. The atlas can be di­vi­ded roughly into three sec­tions. First there's an over­view of major glo­bal trade net­wo…
