Résumé:
Drawing from the collection of the Netherlands Architecture Institute, "Dutch Architecture in 250 Highlights" celebrates the collection's centenary with this portrait of the rich and varied architectural history of the Netherlands. This broad and voluminous publication brings together the designs, buildings and ideas that have helped to build the considerable reputation of Dutch architecture around the world, from the nineteenth century to the present. Architecture historians Ole Bouman, Behrang Mousavi, Hetty Berens, Suzanne Mulder and Ellen Smit guide the reader through more than 250 outstanding buildings and designs, by architects ranging from Cuypers, Berlage, Kromhout, Van Eesteren, Stam and Wijdeveld to Weeber, Coenen and Koolhaas. The thematic and chronological chapters elaborate on their designs in plans, sketches, maquettes and photographs.

Résumé:
For this book, the Netherlands Architecture Institute selected 22 Dutch architecture firms with genuinely innovative ideas on these seven imperatives and the will to do something about them. The result is an agenda for the future of our living environment and a proof that designers have the creative power to make it happen. Architecture of Consequence proves that any notion that architecture should be an “expression of its time,” or should do no more than express the vanity of its commissioners, pales into insignificance when compared to its tremendous potential for resolving urgent societal problems.

Résumé:
It seems an eternal distinction: sometimes people build, sometimes they destroy. However, since we have a concept of modernity, we also understand that building is very often based on sheer destruction. It is ‘the price of progress’. A new insight is now emerging: much destruction also has an agenda. It has a precision that reminds us of architecture. It has a formal(...)
