About Rem Koolhaas

Rem Koolhaas is a Dutch architect, architectural theorist, urbanist and a Professor at Harvard University. In 1975, He founded OMA together with Elia and Zoe Zenghelis and Madelon Vriesendorp. He is seen by some as one of the most significant architectural thinkers and urbanists of his generation. His writings have been inspiring the architecture industry for decades: in 1978 he published the internationally renowned Delirious New York: A Retroactive Manifesto for Manhattan; in 1995, his book S, M, L, XL summarized the work of OMA in "a novel about architecture".

Among many other honors, Rem Koolhaas was awarded the Pritzker Prize in 2000 and the Golden Lion of the Venice Biennale of Architecture for lifetime achievement in 2010. In 2008, Time put him in their top 100 of The World's Most Influential People.
