    • Bruno says:

      Don't compare different projects. Just shows that you don't understand

      • Question says:

        What a strange reply. What's wrong with comparing? Understanding is founded on comparison.
        But ok – just to say 'it was already built' is also not exactly a searching statement…

  5. Marco says:

    Winy Maas really has a typically Dutch charm to him. Nice video. Happy to see the building in motion (reflective surfaces always look bumpy on stationary images … it seems to look very well in reality)

  6. CCC* says:

    I saw him speak in HK a few years ago. He is extremley brilliant and MVRDV's process is beautiful.

    Design with a smile. I like that.
