The Center of Contemporary Architecture and The Netherlands Architecture Institute within the festival «уDUTCHная архитектура» present the exhibition

«Architecture of Consequence»

The exhibition presents a varying selection of work by the architecture firms featured in the book, chosen to reflect the particular context of the location where the exhibition is on display. The designs that are presented are the fruits of an ambition to find sustainable designs for the future. The theme is expanded by exhibiting the selected designs in different scales.

In addition to the exhibition, the NAi is also publishing a book entitled Architecture of Consequence – Dutch Designs on the Future. The book discusses the work of 25 Dutch architecture firms that all approach city-making from the context of societal issues. Contemporary design practices are held up to scrutiny, using the conclusions delivered by «Shape our Country» as a benchmark. The result is an agenda for spatial innovation which will serve as a springboard for urban design and architecture in the years to come. It reflects the mounting international awareness that seeking solutions to the most pressing issues of our day is everyone’s concern. The themes are universal – they motivate and move the entire international architecture community, with which this book is also a call to designers to create a better world.
