What the monk-architect's theory of "Architectural Space" and the work of his Bossche School can teach us about design challenges of the future.

Dutch Benedictine monk and architect Dom Hans van der Laan (1904–91) built his practice around his concept of the "Architectural Space" and a proportional system based on the 3:4 ratio. In this practical guide to his methodology, Caroline Voet uses his students' examples to update his principles for the 21st century.
