MVRDV FILES 2
Project 069-349
This issue is a sequel to the first a+u 'MVRDV FILES Projects 002-209' published in 2002 (November 2002 Special Issue). It shows the amazing evolution of one of today's most stimulating and intriguing offices, which focuses simultaneously on the design of buildings and prototypes, on architectural research, and on urban problems. These files counterbalance the book KM3: Excursions on Capacities (Actar, 2005). While KM3 embodies reflection and a theoretical framework at the forefront of a new urbanism, this publication presents the chronology of projects in their environment without hiding or concealing the plain reality.
