"In the seventeen years since Ben van Berkel and Caroline Bos established their studio in Amsterdam, they have continually pushed the boundaries of contemporary architecture, seeking new design practices and building solutions. The work that has resulted from these explorations fuses a sophisticated understanding of digital design with a formal and material experimentation that has ensured their work reaches far beyond the 'supermodernism' associated with architectural practices of the Netherlands.
Fluidity and flexibility, often underpinned by diagrammatic method, are hallmarks of UN Studio's buildings and projects. From a live-work house based on a Möbius strip to radical infrastructure projects, such as bridges and transportation hubs, from power stations to museums, the practice has subtly, but profoundly, reinvented a number of standard building types and proposed radical new modes of collaboration in the digital age.
This book is a complete monograph of UN Studio's output." (Taken from the publishers cover text).
