Hans van der Heijden: Unfashionable ordinariness
Hans van der Heijden heads the Rotterdam practice biq together with Rick Wessels. Swimming against the stream of the neomodern and supermodern tendencies that have long predominated in the Netherlands, biq has secured a position for itself with an architecture that prioritizes the everyday and the ordinary.

Malleable metal
Although metal made its entry into architecture at the end of the 19th century – in imposing station roofs, in the Eiffel Tower, in Art Nouveau ironwork stairs and balconies – we continue to associate steel and aluminium first and foremost with the rational modernism of the 20th century. The skyscrapers of Mies van der Rohe, the furniture and prefab facade panels of Jean Prouvé, the high-tech architecture of Renzo Piano and Richard Rogers… However, during the past ten years or so, that quasi-industrial character has ceased to be axiomatic. More and more, architects are discovering (or rediscovering) the craft-like qualities of metal.

Buildings from the margins of modern history
Raine Karp's Linnahall concert hall in Tallinn (1976–1980) is one of the most advanced buildings of the Soviet era in Estonia. According to Triin Ojari it is unique both in its seafront location, and in its architectural concept.
