Rem Koolhaas intensive conceptual thinking about architecture and social circumstances ran simultaneously from the very early stages of his career. With a background in journalism and scriptwriting - his curiosity, research and urge to analyse are basics of his and OMAs working process.
It is this approach that makes him a highly debated thinker and architect - although he staunchly refutes the label Starchitect. This image, he feels, blinds the public to a clear view of what his and OMAs work is really about.
