About the Book

In the 17 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. With major projects recently completed in Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Korea and the Netherlands, and teaching appointments in Germany and the United States, UNStudio is creating some of the most innovative and respected work of their generation. Their Mercedes-Benz Museum in Stuttgart cemented their reputation as one of Europe's most influential architecture practices. 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.
