about the book

"The story of Mecanoo is an encouraging one, especially for students of architecture. Founded in 1983 with a portfolio of competition winning student schemes, Mecanoo has become one of the leading practices of a new generation of Dutch architects. From an early reputation founded upon a critical reconsideration of both the form and content of Dutch social housing and a reappraisal of the role of architecture in urban regeneration, Mecanoo’s subsequent commissions have expanded to include a broad range of civic projects.(...)"
