MVRDV WoZoCos

WoZoCos is just one of many projects planned and constructed by the MVRDV. Based in Rotterdam, the MVRDV has been creating unusual and beautiful architecture since 1996.

On the edge of Amsterdam an otherwise ordinary apartment slab is expanded by radically cantilevering apartments over the sidewalk on one side of the building. On the other side, colourful translucent balconies punctuate the facade.

Check out the extraordinary photos

Call me a nurterer. It’s just in my genes I guess.”

Radioactive Ghost Town - photos taken on a ride through Chernobyl
dead zone. “from the first look ghosttown seems like a normal town, someone hung their washing on a balcony, some windows open, other clothed, here is taxi stop, there is grocery store… then, you read this slogan on building- “party of Lenin lead us to the triumph of a communism”- that helps to realise that clothes hung on balcony for 18 years and that town is empty..”
