Summary:
Cofounder of the Droog Design collective, the Dutch designer, art historian, critic and curator Renny Ramakers (born 1946) has championed the notion of furniture and industrial design as a reimagination of today's world for more than three decades, combining virtual technologies and social media with the craft of design to develop new social relations. When Droog first exhibited at the Milan furniture fair in 1993, its assemblies of found materials and witty forms instantly changed the landscape of design. Since then, Ramakers has worked with makers and creators to move beyond slick objects and toward critical projects that open our eyes to our multifaceted realities while bringing great access and joy to users.

Summary:
At its root, modernism is that fundamental. It is a question of having something to represent that is of the moment. In the most radical interpretation, modernism always comes too late. The modern is that which is always new, which is to say, always changing and already old by the time it has appeared. Modernism is always a retrospective act, one of documenting or trying(...)

Summary:
At its root, modernism is that fundamental. It is a question of having something to represent that is of the moment. In the most radical interpretation, modernism always comes too late. The modern is that which is always new, which is to say, always changing and already old by the time it has appeared. Modernism is always a retrospective act, one of documenting or trying to catch what has already appeared - an attempt to fix life as it is being lived. Modernity is just the very fact that we as human beings are continually remaking the world around us through our actions, and are doing so consciously. Modernism is a monument to or memory of that act, which in its own making tries to remake the world it is pretending to represent.

Summary:
A concrete tree trunk growing in the middle of a commercial street in Tokyo, an airport terminal that looks almost like a bird's wing, a skyscraper facade that seems to move like ocean waves, a visitors' center perfectly integrated into the landscape of Taiwan's largest lake - nature is everpresent in Japanese architect Norihiko Dan's buildings. His architecture never(...)

Summary:
A concrete tree trunk growing in the middle of a commercial street in Tokyo, an airport terminal that looks almost like a bird's wing, a skyscraper facade that seems to move like ocean waves, a visitors' center perfectly integrated into the landscape of Taiwan's largest lake - nature is everpresent in Japanese architect Norihiko Dan's buildings. His architecture never stands alone, for Dan always seeks symbiosis; this appears in his combination of geometric-archetypical with organic forms, in his urban planning projects, which bring submerged historic and cultural identities back to light, as well as in the ecological orientation of his buildings.
