There's a Block Attack in East Asia! It is transforming cities overnight. Massive towers, slabs and blocks are wiping out traditional urban villages - communities that have evolved over the course of centuries. Packed with identical housing units, these faceless intruders offer a Western standard of living for an affordable price, but at the expense of differentiation, flexibility and individual expression.
Is there an alternative? Can we imagine a new model for the development of Asian cities? Can we densify these areas in such a way that the informality of the village is preserved? Can we create a vertical village - a three-dimensional community that brings personal freedom, diversity, flexibility and neighbourhood life back into Asian
- and maybe even Western - cities?
In this book, MVRDV and The Why Factory explore this dream, with the help of the Berlage Institute and many other contributors. The Vertical Village is the fourth book in The Why Factory's Future City series, and the subject of the 2012 exhibition at the JUT Foundation's Museum of Tomorrow in Taipei.
