In 1999 the Rotterdam-Maaskant Prize for Young Architects was awarded to Edzo Bindels, Ruurd Gietema, Henk Hartzema and Arjan Klok. In this publication they describe various schemes they have made for designing the Netherlands. The book is divided into three sections: the first traces the path taken by Dutch urban design since 1966 and the position the quartet of winners occupy in its evolution. Part two documents four projects. In the third part key figures and clients from the world of spatial planning are drawn on their opinions, dreams, ambitions, experiences and resolutions as these relate to the issues raised in the four schemes.

This book displays and dissects the career and design motives of graphic designer Joost Grootens. In a systematic fashion it charts the first 100 books designed by Grootens over the past ten years. In the first chapter, '10 years', Grootens uses timelines, lists and graphs to map the course of his career as a designer, the people he worked with and the places where the work took place. In '100 books', the designer dissects his book designs. He details the grids, formats, paper stocks, colours and typefaces, and charts the books' structures and compositions. '18,788 pages' shows at actual size a selection of spreads from books designed by Grootens, including the internationally acclaimed atlases. In the text 'I swear I use no art at all' Joost Grootens gives a personal account of making books and the ideas behind his designs.

The opening of the economy to external markets has brought about the re assessment of the significance of large spatial agglo­merations and the accentuation of polarization at national scale. The dual movement of centralization and de-concentration proces­ses, inwards and outwards, contributes to urban sprawl beyond the limits of metropolitan areas, as has been demonstrated in Shang­hai, Jakarta, Delta Metropolis, Mexico City, Sao Paolo and Santia­go. lts consequences for urban structure and urban morphology are immense and complex, and it has fostered social fragmentati­on of space, changing location opportunities, land uses and centra­lities. The importance of transport and communication is accentua­ted, large intra and inter urban connectivity are generated together with the generation of articulated networks, corridors, nodes with impact in land values. New lifestyles, new urban environments and new form of governance emerge and need to be theoretically and empirically underpinned.

Het compactestadbeleid is in Nederland ongeveer een kwart eeuw oud. Het werd gedreven door de vier grote steden in de Randstad, die zich na de economische crises van de jaren zeventig en het gevoerde (gebundeld) deconcentratiebeleid geconfronteerd zagen met een enorm verlies aan midden- en hogere inkomensgroepen. Tegelijkertijd ontstonden nieuwe inzichten over het belang van krachtige steden in de opkomende mondiale netwerkeconomie. In combinatie daarmee kwamen ook duurzaamheid, mobiliteit en kwaliteit van het landelijk gebied in relatie tot die stedelijke opgave op de agenda. Vanuit die achtergrond werd het compactestadbeleid vanaf midden jaren tachtig op nationaal niveau geformaliseerd. De doorgezette mondialisering, informatisering, de veranderende economie en het toenemend belang van duurzame ruimtelijke ontwikkeling vragen om een hernieuwde invulling van compactestadbeleid. De actuele setting is wezenlijk anders dan die van zo'n kwart eeuw geleden.

Over the course of three years, the Institute of Architecture and Planning at the University of Liechtenstein, the Mackintosh School of Architecture in Glasgow, and the Academie van Bouwkunst, Amsterdam, cooperated on an international research project dedicated to the design of façades. Crafting the Façade presents the results of this productive cooperative study, which cut across disciplines to look at historical developments in the design and building of façades, the theoretical underpinnings that can explain these developments, the common materials and their main characteristics, and the techniques used in assembly. The project also prompted a great deal of innovative design work, including detailed drawings at a scale of 1:10 and the design and construction of life-size prototypes in stone, brick, and wood--all of which are reproduced here among the book's two hundred illustrations. Through their leadership roles with the project, editors Urs Meister, Carmen Rist-Stadelmann, and Machiel Spaan also reflect in Crafting the Façade on the learning processes that emerged from the project and offer guidance and resources for others looking to delve into this topic in depth.

This atlas addresses the New Dutch Water Defence Line (Nieuwe Hollandse Waterlinie) on a themed basis. Its position in the landscape, the forts, the inundation system, the geomorphology, the strategic system and recent developments can be read off in maps rendered so as to give an understanding of all aspects of the defence line landscape. The defence line reveals itself as a many-tentacled military defensive system of forts, group shelters and polders that can be flooded at the threat of war. The maps show the cohesion of the defence line as a landscape-strategic structure as well as the topographic composition of this structure in layers and components. The more detailed maps of the forts display the wealth of historic places, insertions in the landscape and defining elements. The atlas offers administrators something to lean on and designers a sense of freedom - a solid stepping-off point for getting this unique national landscape literally back on the map. Essays place the New Dutch Water Defense Line in a historical perspective

On the ever-decreasing distinction between those who produce digital data, those who design its visualization and those who use it as a new form of cartography Mapmaking has been an essential part of human development since ancient times: through the art of cartography, people have been able to record geographical explorations and communicate spatial information in relation to themselves and the land around them, using fixed points and lived experiences as references. In the digital age, maps are just as likely to convey the relationships between individual users and amorphous data as they are to depict the relationships between human beings and the stars and planets above. Blind Maps and Blue Dotsexamines the impact of the omnipresent computer on current understandings of data visualization and graphic design, in which the boundaries between producers and users of maps has become increasingly blurred. This text is structured around three contemporary mapmaking practices: Google Maps' location function, referred to as the Blue Dot; a global map that displays the physical activity of users of the fitness app Strava; and the "Situation in Syria" maps series, a regularly updated map of the Syrian conflict designed by an Amsterdam teenager. Like every other field, graphic design must evolve to reflect the modern world and the needs of its people. Blind Maps and Blue Dotsoffers a new approach that acknowledges and even encourages the breakdown of the binary between producer and user.
