We had the opportunity to moderate an interesting conversation between Winy Maas (MVRDV), Yuri Grigoryan (MEGANOM), Sergei Tchoban (SPEECH) and Reinier de Graaf (OMA), “Not Just Standardised, How Architects See Modern Housing”. The participants shared their approaches to housing on their recent projects, from MEGANOM’s Manhattan skyscraper to MVRDV’s massive housing projects in India, and discussed the questions of market forces, density and the failure of the modern project, with contrasting views from examples such as the density and height of Saint Petersburg by Sergei Tchoban, or Reinier de Graaf’s survey on the wealth of NY’s skyline.
