Delft, Netherlands, based architectural firm Mecanoo has produced many outstanding projects during its 20 years of existence. According to principal architect Francine Houben, "Architecture is a combination of various elements, like town and landscape planning and interior design. Mecanoo's work is characterised by the integration of these disciplines".

In Mecanoo's designs, technical, human and playful aspects are interwoven into one solution. With more than 300 projects to its name, and in excess of 100 built projects, mecanoo is a highly successful european firm. This comprehensive monograph examines a substantial number of the firm's early and recent projects, both built and unbuilt.
