MVRDV opens the archives in Rotterdam retrospective that marks its recent contribution to the city's skyline

To coincide with this weekend’s official opening of the firm’s latest creation next door, the three-decade output of MVRDV will be examined in a new exhibition hosted by Rotterdam’s Het Nieuwe Instituut.  Titled MVRDVHNI: The Living Archive, the multi-layer exhibition will dive into the roots of the philosophy that has been behind all of the firm’s major projects over the years, including the recently completed Depot Boijmans Van Beuningen and Taoyuan Museum of Art.Divided into three themes, the projects in the exhibition are also arranged along a Darwinist chronology that reveals a comprehensive archive of materials that had been either digitally preserved previously, or otherwise unveiled with the help of search engine software developed in-house by MVRDV’s Next studio. Read the full post on Bustler
