  • Casa da Música Porto by OMA
    For many years, new noticeable objects in the urban landscape of Porto have been ruled by consumerism, with shopping malls and speculative housing complexes, and by the established codes of the Porto School, with Álvaro Siza as the foreman. The new millennium starts with Koolhaas' appearance shaking things up.

  • Plans for a New Stedelijk Museum
    A very preliminary design proposal. A pre-sketch design. The vision of the architect. That was the type of language used yesterday at the media presentation to describe the winning design by Benthem Crouwel Architecten for the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam.

  • Venice Bienniale - Preview
    This summer - from June through to November 2000 - the new Architecture Biennale will be held in Venice. The Biennale offers an overview of what is current in the world of architecture (and related work in visual art) in the participating countries. The scenario for this year's event was drawn up by the Italian Massimiliano Fuksas, the flamboyant and - in Italy - not uncontroversial architect. Ahead of the opening, those interested can gain a preview on the Internet, where a rapidly growing exhibition of participants' work is in the making.

  • 25 Informal kiloVolts
    Situated in the Lloyds harbour area of Rotterdam, this multi-company building for businesses and artists active in the media sector, designed by architect and Archined colleague Robert Winkel, is now almost complete. The staff at Archined have witnessed at close hand the ups and downs of the design and construction process of this '25kV building' as it is known. And we're just as proud as Robert, not to mention somewhat astonished, that the original, radical concept - a completely transparent facade containing glazed toilets and glazed kitchenettes - has survived unscathed through the jungle of officialdom and regulations.

    The 25kV building is a former electricity control station, now renovated to house workspaces for (new) media companies and visual artists working with new media. The original building was little more than a blank concrete volume with heavy concrete f…
