About this title

Synopsis:

The architecture firm of Cees Dam and his son Diederik produces all manner of projects on every possible scale, from front doors to houses to large office and apartment towers to complete urban projects. Embracing and extrapolating the rich heritage of Dutch architecture, the firm continually produces buildings that attain that fine balance between speaking to their environment and standing out from it. A particularly commendable feature of Dam’s work is an emphasis on sustainability, and the firm deploys fascinating solutions to questions of ventilation, lighting and sustainable materials. This volume surveys works in progress up to 2001.
