  • New Trends En El Mundo
    1 NEW TRENDS EN EL MUNDO La cuarta edición del New Trends of Architecture comenzó en Patras, Grecia, Capital europea de la Cultura 2006, en Junio de ese mismo año. La inauguración fue el día 2 de Junio del 2006. New Trends of Architecture fue fundada en el 2001 por un grupo de consejeros japoneses de la cultura y los medios de comunicación, de quince estados miembros de la Unión Europea, Instituciones Culturales europeas y de la Delegación de la Comisión Europea en Japón. El objetivo es crear una plataforma que constituya una oportunidad para compartir ideas y experiencias entre Europa y Asia Pacífico, a través de exposiciones anuales y simposiums para arquitectos emergentes europeos, japoneses y de otros países del Pacífico que tendrán lugar en Japón y otras capitales europeas. El proyecto fue reconocido no solo por el mundo de la arquitectura sino también por el mundo diplomático. El antiguo director de la comisión europea, Romano Prodi y, el primer ministro de Japón, Junichiro Koizumi, mencionaron este proyecto especialmente como un programa de intercambio importante durante la cumbre euro japonesa en Julio 2002. En el año 2004, coincidiendo con la ampliación de la Unión Europea, la tercera edición de New Trends of Architecture fue presentada como una nueva iniciativa: un proyecto para las regiones de Europa y el Pacífico asiático. La exposición, acompañada de un simposium, fue organizada en Lille, Hong-Kong, Tokio, Cork, Melbourne y Anyang. En cada ciudad resultó ser una fuente de encuentros e intercambios enriquecedores. El concepto básico de este proyecto fue inspirado por la idea europea de la Capital Europea de la Cultura.

We zijn een moderne stad, geroemd in binnen- en buitenland, de laatste jaren vooral door de nieuwe bijzondere gebouwen die er zijn neergezet. En er komt nog veel meer aan, kan ik u vertellen. Daarover straks meer. Rotterdammers weten natuurlijk al jaren dat we een mooie stad zijn. Ik ben daar zelf voorbeeld van: ik kwam hier als vierjarig jochie wonen en ben nooit meer weggegaan. Desondanks was die trots op de stad meer iets onbewusts. Een gevoel dat alleen werd uitgesproken als niet-Rotterdammers het waagden iets negatiefs te zeggen over mijn stad. Maar zo is het al lang niet meer. Er waren eigenlijk buitenstaanders nodig om ons wakker te schudden. Sinds kranten als The New York Times en The Guardian Rotterdam in het vizier hebben gekregen en sinds we op allerlei ranglijsten staan, kijken we met andere ogen naar onze stad. Zelfbewust worden via de u-bochtconstructie noem ik het. Opeens beseffen we dat Rotterdam inderdaad bruist. En dat we best hardop mogen zeggen dat we trots zijn op onze stad. Het blijft niet alleen bij woorden. We zijn inmiddels een trekpleister voor nieuwe bedrijven en toeristen. Ook willen steeds meer mensen in Rotterdam wonen of blijven wonen: jonge gezinnen, hoger opgeleiden en oud-Rotterdammers die terugkeren vanuit de randgemeenten.

  • An Interview with Winy Maas Hon FRIAS
    RIAS Quarterly Autumn 2018 Depot-boijmans-van-beuningen, Rotterdam © MVRDV An interview with Winy Maas Hon FRIAS 53 RIAS Quarterly Autumn 2018 Valley, Amsterdam © MVRDV Image: Vero Visuals, Rotterdam, The Netherlands Today we educate our staff in technology and sustainability, and also here we are early adopters - recently our in-house BIM whizz- kid was asked to help the government of Luxembourg to implement BIM. Another fantastic innovation is scripting. For our Valley project in Amsterdam we’ve been able to test the façade for each tower, creating 80 variants that respect daylight, view and sustainable elements. What do you think are the principal opportunities and challenges for architecture (and architects) in the next 25 years? We have to participate in the global issues, as experts and as a discipline. We should think big with a vision to give direction and work hard on it; we should look ahead to the future and always remain curious to find and apply innovations. What’s next for you and MVRDV? Forthcoming projects? Future ambitions? In 2019 we will complete a large museum project in Rotterdam, the totally democratic and fully accessible art depot for Museum Boijmans van Beuningen. Then in 2022 we will open the first smart city in the Netherlands, the MVRDV Nowadays it has finally become mainstream Floriade Almere. Our ambitions are broad - You established MVRDV together with to work on these global issues. We saw we want to do everything at all scales.
