The Rotterdam Office is quite busy with urban developments in – guess where – UAE, Dubai, Quatar, you name it. Doing huge models, childish and sublime at the same time.
As an aside – check the old but interesting interview with Rem at Der Spiegel.
I also hear That he isn’t fond of mass-productions of options anymore – the method seems to have shifted to a “stick with it and go for it” mentality. Which is interesting, as I am personally changing my method the opposite way.

Oh, definitely. I know Pier-Vittorios work very well from the Berlage. Thats really another (extremist) scale. For those interested in his academic work check out the current exhibition at the Bozar in Brussels (http://www.bozar.be) and the accompaning publication: -Brussels- A Manifesto, launch on April 3rd @ berlage Institute.
