Summary

West 8 in Rotterdam geh??ren heute nicht nur zu den europaweit gr????ten, sondern auch bekanntesten und aktivsten Gestaltern in "Urban Design & Landscape Architecture". Ihre Arbeitsweise zeigt eine starke interdisziplin??re Orientierung. Die Projekte sind provokant, typisch holl??ndisch avantgardistisch und ohne Angst vor Ber??hrungen mit der Popkultur. Sie entstanden in enger Zusammenarbeit mit Architekten wie Richard Rogers, Steven Holl, Dominique Perrault, Rem Koolhaas und Renzo Piano. Gr??nder, Leiter und exponierte Figur des B??ros ist Adriaan Geuze, in diesem Jahr Kurator der Internationalen Architekturbiennale in Rotterdam. Das Buch pr??sentiert Klassiker wie den Schouwburgplein in Rotterdam und dem Chiswick Park in London, aber auch spektakul??re tempor??re Installationen f??r das Spoleto Art Festival in Charleston, USA, oder die Expo.02 in Yverdon-les-Bains. Zu den aktuellen Projekten z??hlen der Buona Vista Park in Singapur, ein Luxury Village in Moskau, die South Bank Jubilee Gardens in London und die M-30 Passage im Zentrum von Madrid.
