"Shift Embassy," Rotterdam, the Netherlands

MVRDV has won the international design competition organized by the social enterprise Shift to design the Shift Embassy, a new cultural destination planned for Rotterdam's developing Waterkant district.

Called Rotterdam ROCKS!, the proposal departs from the image of the isolated landmark by turning much of the building into an accessible public landscape.

Seven stacked, porous volumes form a series of caves and elevated terraces that connect exhibition spaces, hospitality functions, and outdoor routes.

Visitors can climb the exterior to reach panoramic viewing platforms overlooking Rotterdam, while vegetation, water, and habitats for birds and insects extend the future tidal park vertically across the facade, and attempts to weave ecological systems directly into its architecture. 

The project will form part of Waterkant, a large-scale urban development on the south bank of the Maas, planned to include 3,750 homes alongside schools, workplaces, cultural venues, and public spaces.

TIANJIN BINHAI LIBRARY

MVRDV and Tianjin Urban Planning and Design Institute (TUPDI) have completed Tianjin Binhai Library as part of a larger masterplan to provide a cultural district for the city. The 33,700m2 cultural centre featuring a luminous spherical auditorium and floor-to-ceiling cascading bookcases functions not only as an education centre but as a social space and connector from the park into the cultural district.

MVRDV's Dutch Pavilion at Expo 2000, Hannover, Germany. The office's response to the theme “Holland Creates Space” was to stack six Dutch landscapes in a single building. With its dramatic presence and fifth-floor forest, it was widely lauded as the most exciting and memorable contribution to the 2000 Expo, and as a model to create artificial nature in high-rises.
