The article is devoted to the key concepts in Koolhaas’s work. The article discusses the concepts implemented by the architect when developing a functional program, spatial structure, and architectural form. Various objects created by applying these concepts are analyzed. Many examples are given to illustrate Koolhaas’s original method. Features of the application of concepts that ensure the uniqueness of the design solution in each object are revealed, when using similar design tools. Particular attention is paid to the evolutionary development of concepts ▪ from their theoretical basis and experimentation in early projects to their consolidation in symbolic patents as architectural inventions.
