"This book is not simply an overview of the architecture and urban planning by Van Sambeek & Van Veen. It can also be read as a book about a specific approach to architecture and urban planning. It mirrors a design philosophy that expresses rigour and consistency. The architecture and urban plans that spring from this stance are characterized by a strict and in many respects highly personal logic. The book therefore presents more than just an impression of an oeuvre that is still growing and evolving, but also reveals a universe in which order and organization occupy a crucial place. The disturbance, reinforcement and revision of the existing order are inextricably linked with every spatial intervention that an architect makes. For Van Sambeek & Van Veen, herein lies the very essence of architecture. The awareness of order can be concisely detected in each project, and also in this book. The book's structure follows a path similar to that for the creation of an architectural or urban design; this publication has also been conceived as a project in which organization is an essential factor. This also ratifies the close ties between the book and the architecture and urban planning presented within, in the same way as there is a strong relationship with the character of the creators of this architecture and urban planning."--BOOK JACKET.
