Book Description Since the beginning of the last century, the Ruhr Area has been the industrial heart of Germany. With the demise of the coal, iron and steel industries, the region now faces an existential question: growth or shrinkage? This dichotomy is the point of departure for the development of various future scenarios, and it is from here that MVRDV, the celebrated Rotterdam-based architectural firm, developed its structural exploration on the future of the Rhine-Ruhr region, implemented in cooperation with a number of German and Netherlandish universities. Extensively documented in this book, the study presents a compact commentary on the meaning of region, identity and tradition, issues ever more consciously present in the age of globalization. Also in this volume is MVRDV's pavilion for Hannover EXPO 2000. The firm caused a stir with its design for the Dutch pavilion, whose motto, "Holland Creates Space," was skillfully translated into a façade-free building with stacked-up landscapes.

Short history of the firm-MVRDV
MVRDV was set up in Rotterdam (the Netherlands) in 1991 by Winy Maas, Jacob van Rijs and Nathalie de Vries after they won the first prize in the Berlin Europan Competition.
MVRDV is housed in an old printing shop in Rotterdam, designed by architect Kromhout. produces designs and studies in the fields of architecture, urbanism and landscape design.
Early projects such as the Light Urbanism study for the Municipality of Rotterdam, the headquarters for Public Broadcasting Company VPRO and housing for elderly Wozoco¡¯s in Amsterdam brought to the attention of a wide field of clients and gave them international acclaim.
The office continues to pursue its fascination and methodical research on density. It uses a method of shaping space through complex amounts of data that usually accompany contemporary building and design processes.
The office first published a cross section of these study results in FARMAX (010 Publishers, 1998).
The products of this approach vary and range from buildings of all types and sizes, to urban designs to publications and installations. Realized projects include the Dutch Pavilion for the World Exhibition 2000 in Hanover-Germany, an innovative business park -¡®Flight Forum¡¯ in Eindhoven, two Houses at Borneo Sporenburg in Amsterdam, an orange Atelier in Amsterdam and the futuristic installation Metacity/Datatown that is travelling around the world.
This mixture of projects continues in the current work of the office. Current projects in progress or on site include large housing projects in Amsterdam and The Hague, an urban design for a part of Almere and a hotel in Amsterdam.
Activities outside the Netherlands include a housing scheme for 100 units in Vienna, Austria, a 50.000 m2 office development in Munich, Germany, a pavilion for a Art Triennial in Niigata, Japan, a conversion of 2 silos into appartments in Kopenhagen, Denmark , a housingproject in Madrid, Spain, and a Mobility Park near Hamburg, Germany. is also invited for several European design competitions that currently take place.
Around fifty architects, designers and staff members of are organized into teams headed by project leaders. In each team, different fields and scales of ¡¯s projects are reflected, both in the (international) background of team members and in the variation of work. has permanent relationships with engineering firms to activate the exchange of up to date knowledge.
The Regionmaker RheinRuhrCity - The Hidden Metropolis by MVRDV

The REGIONMAKER / RheinRuhrCity book accompanies the exhibition with the same name in the NRW-Forum Kultur und Wirtschaft in Dusseldorf 2002/2003.
The exhibition as well as this book wants to generate a discussion on the possible future of the RhineRuhr region in Germany - at the moment that large-scale items again become part of the architectural domain.
The REGIONMAKER has been developed as an innovative planning device and has been applied to the agglomeration at Rhine and Ruhr.
This most radical and far-sighted analysis of RheinRuhrCity as well as the development of the REGIONMAKER have been made possible through a collaboration between the dutch planning office MVRDV, various academic institutions and highly recommended international proffesionals.
The book can be seen as a \\\"manual\\\" for The REGIONMAKER and describes the targetsand the structure of the software.
