Extended description
MVRDV is a Dutch architecture and urbanism studio specialising in sustainable densification, green roofs, urban agriculture and climate-adaptation strategies. Its projects add green surfaces to roofs and façades across many cities and are reported to lower local temperatures by around 1–3°C, while its masterplans embed emission reductions. The practice is known for making density greener, cooler and more liveable.
