Summary:
This book provides a survey of the main developments in European architecture from the end of the nineteenth century to the present. It is the first architecture history that pays considerable attention to the architecture of Central and Eastern Europe. During the era of the Iron Curtain, developments in Eastern Europe were hidden from the eyes of Western Europe. But despite this division, it is still possible to speak of a genuinely ‘European’ architecture.

Summary:
In a period of over thirty years, Arne van Herk and Sabien de Kleijn have achieved a varied and unconventional body of work. It consists of architecture, urban design, interior design, furniture, household objects, films and experiments in form and material. This book notes the ingenious skylights in their houseboat as well as the houses on Borneokade Amsterdam. It gives due attention to the foam-rubber objects, the fifty-centimetre high platform shoes, the Woutertje Pieterse School in Leiden and the accommodation building for the Dutch Royal Navy in Den Helder. The architects' working method and their projects are explored in an essay by Hans Ibelings. Adriaan Geuze and Cilia Erens present individual outlooks on the work of Van Herk & De Kleijn. Designed by Karel Martens and Aagje Martens.

Summary:
La globalisation en architecture est généralement perçue comme une force négative conduisant à l'homogénéité et à l'uniformité. Ces dernières années cependant, sous l'influence des processus de globalisation, se dessinent les contours d'une nouvelle et intrigante architecture au sein de laquelle la superficialité et la neutralité ont acquis une signification particulière.

Summary:
This is the story of the rise and sprawl of the condo tower in Toronto. The sheer number of new towers, their size, mass, volume, and height, let alone the speed by which they are being built, is remarkable. The only thing that isn’t remarkable about Toronto’s condominiums is their architecture. 'Rise and Sprawl' analyzes the recent condominiumization of Toronto. It is(...)

Summary:
Modern architecture is inseparably linked with the Industrial Revolution. Industrially manufactured materials such as iron, steel, reinforced concrete, glass, asbestos, and later also plastics, have helped to make architecture modern. The Industrial Revolution also set planetary warming in motion. Thus, it is not far-fetched to claim that there are also correlations(...)

Summary:
Modern architecture is inseparably linked with the Industrial Revolution. Industrially manufactured materials such as iron, steel, reinforced concrete, glass, asbestos, and later also plastics, have helped to make architecture modern. The Industrial Revolution also set planetary warming in motion. Thus, it is not far-fetched to claim that there are also correlations between modern architecture and planetary warming. This book is a rough sketch of a proposed history of modern architecture since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution. It aims to break away from the established neural networks of the profession’s collective memory of how modern architecture’s history has unfolded, and offers the beginning of a rewiring: by introducing new actors, and highlighting ideas and projects that deal with climate and environment, while relegating some of the usual stars of modernism and postmodernism to the background.

Summary:
For both Jo Kruger (1914–1983) and Rob Hootsmans (1962) the architecture of the Courthouse in Zwolle, the Netherlands, was a long time in the making. Kruger began in 1963 with his project for a combined district and subdistrict court, which took fourteen years to be completed. In 2004, while still working for the Government Building Agency, Hootsmans began exploring how(...)

For both Jo Kruger (1914–1983) and Rob Hootsmans (1962) the architecture of the Courthouse in Zwolle, the Netherlands, was a long time in the making. Kruger began in 1963 with his project for a combined district and subdistrict court, which took fourteen years to be completed. In 2004, while still working for the Government Building Agency, Hootsmans began exploring how Kruger’s building could be expanded. He finished a new extension in 2013, and completed the renovation of Kruger’s original building in 2016. Even if the architecture of Jo Kruger is very different from that of Rob Hootsmans, it is somehow a meeting of kindred spirits.

Summary:
Parasites are flexible and temporary structures, designed by artists or architects, that feed off existing infrastructure. "Parasite Paradise" documents 23 projects that offer new ways of designing the public domain outside the existing rules. Many of these parasites have settled in the government-designated 'Vinex' district of Leidsche Rijn near Utrecht. There they have introduced new and unforeseen functions, turning a district almost exclusively concerned with dwelling into a more urban entity. What do these small, mobile architectural interventions mean for our strictly regulated society and for the planning of architecture and urbanism? What sense (or nonsense) is there in mobile architecture from a historical perspective? And how does it divide up the roles of art and architecture? Essays by Gijs van Oenen, Ivan Nio, Hans Ibelings, Jennifer Allen and Olof Koekebakker examine these issues in depth. The project descriptions and essays encourage us to consider another approach to planning, one where not everything is fixed beforehand. This makes Parasite Paradise required reading for architects, urban planners and artists whose concern is designing the public realm. "Parasite Paradise" features projects by a.o. Inge Roseboom and Mark Weemen, Shigeru Ban, Atelier van Lieshout, Exilhäuser Architekten, Hans Peter Wörndl, 2012 Architecten, Bik VanderPol with Korteknie Stuhlmacher Architecten, Alicia Framis, Eduard Böhtlingk, Luc Deleu, Attila Foundation (Kas Oosterhuis, Menno Rubbens, Ilona Lénárd), Daniel Milohnic & Dirk Paschke, Maurer United Architects and Dré Wapenaar.

Summary:
Documenting architectural projects completed in the Netherlands in 2025, this publication is conceived as an open, panoramic record of contemporary practice. ‘NL25’ brings together work across scales, typologies, geographies, and office sizes, offering a broad and inclusive overview of the year’s built output. Rather than a narrowly curated selection, the book captures the diversity of architectural production shaping the Netherlands today, while maintaining a strong editorial language through its artfully designed format. ‘NL25’ therefore serves as both a snapshot of the present moment and a lasting reference for architects, institutions, and enthusiasts.
