This very special exhibition journal, takes a look at 25 architectural practices from Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands, primarily characterised by their experimental and unconventional approaches to architecture. The specific and speculative aspects of a new generation of architectural thought and strategies are fascinating. Planned and potential projects have been included alongside built structures. Production factors such as materials, research and teaching, new media and technologies, promotion and competition structures, education, role models and networks are all discussed. Contributions from Anh-Linh Ngo, Berlin; Anneke Bokern, Amsterdam; Christoph van Gerrewey, Brussel, and from Florina Heilmeyer and Andrea Nakath.
