	MVRDV
		MVRDV heeft sinds haar oprichting in 1991 gebouwd, onderwezen, gepubliceerd en tentoongesteld.
		Het is opmerkelijk hoe persistent MVRDV de afgelopen jaren heeft gewerkt aan het zoeken naar telkens andere uitwerkingen en toepassingen van hetzelfde principe, dat te omschrijven is als het creëren van zoveel mogelijk variaties binnen een rechthoekig volume.
		Het architectenbureau MVRDV wil varkens efficiënt in gestapelde behuizingen vestigen en wel op zo'n manier dat de dieren het beter hebben, het vlees smakelijker wordt, er geen veetransport meer nodig is, ziektes worden uitgebannen en Nederland meer ruimte krijgt.

	Spider in the Field - Snow-Land Agrarian Culture Center, Matsudai by MVRDV
		MVRDV is an office for urbanism and architecture based in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, founded by Winy Maas, Jacob van Rijs and Nathalie de Vries in 1991 after they won the first prize in the Berlin Europan Competition.
		By lifting up the volume, MVRDV had created a column-less open-air space that can be used for events both in summer and winter, despite the heavy downpour and snow.
		MVRDV also collaborated with various artists in creating a series of spaces that is very unique and special.

	MVRDV in Matsudai
		MVRDV's building is designed to introduce the agriculture of this area, and includes exhibition, event and dining facilities.
		Various spaces were created through the collaboration of 6 different artists; their work was brought to a square shaped exhibition floor; and the resulting volume was boldly lifted into the air, supported by six staircases.
		MVRDV did the preliminary design, while SUPER-OS and CLIP (Japanese architectural offices) assisted the preliminary design, did working drawings and supervision, and worked with the structural engineer in a search for unique ideas.

		MVRDV embraces the conflict and challenges the issues through negotiation.
		MVRDV has an unpublished way of moving from their research to a built form.
		I am inclined to agree with MVRDV’s methodology, and even go so far as to say that their work may be above the work of artist-architecture in the sense that it has more meaning.

	WoZoCo's Apartments
		MVRDV is a part of the growing number of young Dutch architects given the freedom to build large projects in their mainland, due to the country's large population density and inherent need for housing.
		MVRDV's solution is indicative of the firm's ability to create original designs through practical considerations.
		This openness gives MVRDV an incentive to find solutions to practical issues that are fresh and inventive, bringing with them an optimistic belief in human imagination and creativity in response to pragmatic considerations.

	MVRDV: radio and television station in Hilversum, Netherlands
		The MVRDV group has come up with a compact but very deep construction distributed over five floors: the aim is to reduce the building¿s impact on the surrounding environment to a minimum.
		In the interiors MVRDV shuns all references to the traditional concept of the office: there are none of those interminable corridors opening onto a series of rooms, as the building grows out of the landscape like a sort of appendix, in which the layout may be adapted as desired.
		The MVRDV group designed the fixtures itself as well as the soundproofed chambers, the cabinets around the columns and a particularly refined coating for the neon lights.

		With their original ideas on density and free space in a crowded country, and by using key terms like compactness and artificial nature, the architects of MVRDV are making a significant contribution to the renewal of architecture in the Netherlands and abroad.
		The buildings of MVRDV are 'hungry boxes.' They have swallowed a large amount of complex of information and compressed it into a simple, orthogonal shape.
		The endless interiors of MVRDV' is the first in a series of three travelling exhibitions, organized by the NAI between 2002 and 2004, about leading contemporary Dutch architect firms.

	Inside-out Silos - MVRDV
		MVRDV has converted two Grain Silos on the Copenhagen harbour-front into high-end housing for the few and fortunate.
		MVRDV chose to go the other way round the task and hang the apartments on the outside of the silo walls as a second skin of glass on the old silo bodies.
		The structural weakness of the concrete tubes were a serious limitation to the project because it made it difficult to cut large holes in the walls for windows without endangering the structural integrity of the silos.

		MVRDV - dieses Kürzel steht für Winy Maas, Jacob van Rijs und Natalie de Vries, Gründer eines der zur Zeit erfolgreichsten global agierenden Architekturbüros in Rotterdam, das bereits für manche kontroverse Debatte gesorgt hat.
		Dieser stellt in seinem sieben Seiten umfassenden Beitrag einen Bezug zwischen MVRDV und dem mittlerweile zum Kult avancierten Kinofilm "The Matrix" her und spielt damit auf den Umgang der Architekten mit Unmengen von Zahlenmaterial an.
		Ein abschließendes Urteil darüber, ob der "REGIONMAKER" letztlich leisten kann, was seine Entwickler erwarten, oder ob er zumindest der Regionalplanung ein brauchbares Werkzeug liefert, scheint derzeit verfrüht.

	Archilab 1999 english -
		Since then, MVRDV has been building, teaching, publishing, and exhibiting, offering the select spectacle of an activity which seems to involve conjunction and encounter as both method and objective.
		MVRDV makes use of, and lays claim to, diversity.
		MVRDV thus either makes its methods systematic, or undoes them in experimentation, but it is forever turning the process of conception into spatial or organizational research, in which they involve, from the project's premisses onward, the greatest possible number of contributors and data.

	agglutinations.com: Correspondence with Bart Lootsma: Reflections on MVRDV, Rem Koolhaas, and Dutch Urbanism
		While Lootsma is quick to observe MVRDVs indebtedness to the Office of Metropolitan Architecture and its principal, Rem Koolhaas, he insists that their organizational and datascape-based methodologies have helped inject new optimism into architecture and urbanism, reinvigorating the designer's role as an agent of social change.
		If you ask me about the difference between MVRDV and Koolhaas' concept of planning, I would say that they start more or less from the same premises, but in that they couldn't be more different in the end.
		MVRDV use both raw statistical data - from the Netherlands Bureau for Statistics -and spatializations of those rules that became institutionalized.

		MVRDV's Studies in Density implies a city that is not only in front, behind or next to you, but also above and below.
		MVRDV, (Maas, van Rijs, de Vries) the Dutch architectural firm based in Rotterdam, has been exploring issues of density and urban growth for the past 10 years, with buildings such as the VPRO headquarters in Hilversum, the Wozoco Hanging Houses in Amsterdam, and the stacked landscapes of the Dutch Pavilion at the Hannover Expo 2000.
		MVRDV has explored, alternative ways to build density into cities by working around building codes and FAR; linking infrastructure with architecture; creating carpets of development; and building densely layered stacks of multiple uses to create a simultaneity of experience.
