Description

Vast areas of the Netherlands and other countries are filling up with low cost housing, low rent offices, warehouses and other low density elements. How do we cope with our environments turning into one vast 'greyness'? Is it possible to reconsider this situation by carrying densities to an extreme and ruffling the texture with inserts or polarities? This book sets out to discover the prospects and limitations, the world of the extreme Floor Area Ratio, FARMAX.

The book is an architectural narrative composed of studies and designs carried out by MVRDV and students of Delft University of Technology, the Berlage Institute in Amsterdam and the Academy of Architecture and Urban Planning in Rotterdam, plus various contributions by other authors.
