This is the first monograph of this Amsterdam architecture firm whose work exhibits a desire to create sustainable solutions, in both an ecological sense, and in the sense that acknowledges that buildings are not emotionally disposable, and therefore demand longevity. In the world of this cutting-edge firm, a building can look like a village, hangar, animal, machine, spaceship or cave; it can contain domestic or adventurous spaces. Any reader interested in the future of architecture will find this an imaginative exploration of architecture's possibilities.
