Don't compare different projects. Just shows that you don't understand
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…
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)
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.
Beautifully flimed and good post Dezeen! More of these. The story of Winny is rather flimsy though…..his smile show he knows………
