    On Friday October 28 the Rotterdam Maaskant Prize for Young Architects 2005 was presented to Oliver Thill, one of the two architects who head up the Rotterdam-based ‘expat’ office Atelier Kempe Thill.

    To explore and comment on Dutch landscape in transformation, Princen sets up his large-format camera before any intended user has even entered the frame, or has even been selected. And then there really is something worth seeing: uses other than thos…
