Order of the Dutch Lion

Rotterdam’s Marketing Award
for Markthal Rotterdam

The jury report mentions that “with the realisation of Markthal Rotterdam in the city centre something unique was created. In a short period this building has become an absolute must-see. Markthal received in the first weeks already one million visitors. Hundreds of positive publications about Markthal have been published in the national and international press. The project of which the two winners are figurehead has played an essential role in strengthening the reputation of the city and the brand of Rotterdam.”

Under Tomorrow's Sky, Winy Maas, Jan LouterIn his latest documentary, filmmaker Jan Louter follows architect, landscape architect, and urban planner Winy Maas for two years. The film has become an intimate look at a person who works passionately to create the city of the future – through buildings and urban plans all over the world, as well as through investigations with students and researchers. The director flew around the world in the wake of the co-founder of MVRDV and director of The Why Factory, and was given access to usually private meetings with clients, design teams, and students during their research. Under Tomorrow's Sky is a candid, open-hearted documentary about the highs and lows of the profession, the broad and the narrow, the visionary and the practical, and shows the architect as he is rarely seen. “You can't practice this profession without optimism”, says Maas. “For me, designing is not a job but a way of life.”

Under Tomorrow's Sky, Winy Maas, Jan LouterUnder Tomorrow's Sky follows Winy Maas through his many daily activities, from working on MVRDV projects to meetings with students from The Why Factory, the think tank he founded at TU Delft. Director Jan Louter travels with Maas to Korea and China, among other places, and visits the construction sites of the geologically inspired apartment building Valley located in Amsterdam Zuidas and the first publicly accessible art depot in the world the Depot Boijmans Van Beuningen in Rotterdam – both buildings that made headlines around the world long before they opened.

The viewer is treated to glamourous building openings such as that of the Imprint nightclub in Seoul, in the presence of celebrities like the American artist Jeff Koons. The film also shows the “raw” side of the profession, from consultations with students to client presentations and internal meetings; the obstacles and the tough negotiations that are sometimes necessary to get innovative designs realised.

Under Tomorrow's Sky shows above all the passion and enthusiasm of Maas, who sees it as his mission to design better cities for the future. “If you understand that the world population will grow by another 2 billion people by 2050, and the same again by 2100, and that most people will live in cities, you see we must take to the skies and develop innovative forms of high-rise buildings in which people can live and work comfortably”, he says. “One of my dreams is to gain momentum with the Vertical Village concept we studied at The Why Factory and MVRDV, stacked houses connected by bridges and plazas. This allows you to create a park, a childcare centre, a café, and workplaces at a height of 100 meters. That's what the urbanism of the future should look like.”
