MVRDV WoZoCos
WoZoCos is just one of many projects planned and constructed by the MVRDV. Based in Rotterdam, the MVRDV has been creating unusual and beautiful architecture since 1996.
On the edge of Amsterdam an otherwise ordinary apartment slab is expanded by radically cantilevering apartments over the sidewalk on one side of the building. On the other side, colourful translucent balconies punctuate the facade.

That’s amazing. I’ve always dreamed of a city like this, where as the future brings our population skyrocketing exponentially into the 10s of billions and we realize that suburban sprawl becomes unrealistic – what now may be an hour commute into the city for work will eventually grow beyond the scope of practicality, so we begin to build our cities higher, adding buildings on top of eachother.
Until our cities are just towering up over us, cities built on top of cities, kind of like this.
