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. Oh, def­i­nitely. I know Pier-​Vittorios work very well from the Berlage. Thats really another (extrem­ist) scale.

Doing huge models, childish and sublime at the same time. As an aside - check the old but interesting interview with Rem at <a href="http://www.spiegel.de/international/spiegel/0,1518,druck-408748,00.html" rel="nofollow">Der Spiegel</a>. 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. 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.
