荷蘭建築之成功絕對與此人有關
開放的都市規劃設計
給予名氣未響的建築師有機會發揮
並奠定了荷蘭的都市新風貌和建築特色

Born in 1953, Amsterdam
An architect and urban planner from the Netherlands
Worked with Rem Koolhaas
Founded firms in Rotterdam in 1989
Taught in Berlin from 1996 to 2003,
As the Chair of Architecture and Urbanism in the Institute for Urban Design at the ETH in Zürich now
Rem Koolhaas的影響導致這位都市規劃催手的誕生
從海牙的住宅群規劃到中國城市的競圖
Kees Christiaanse都保持一貫的開放風格
在沒有堅強理由之下
他不願意畫出沒有意義的曲線
正如他所說
"You should always have at least three valid reasons for drawing a curve."
他的作品分為都市規劃與建築設計兩類
幾何的機能性都市規劃
乾淨優雅的建築均為其特色
建築或許對他跟都市一樣
應該是創造環境吸引入住
而不是為了特定目的建造
