Ingels looks into the distant future of architecture, addressing the main design trends and the development of AI, sustainability and interplanetary migration, giving form to the world of tomorrow.
Overview of project completed by BIG.
Architecture is the art and science of accommodating the lives we want to live. Our cities and buildings aren't givens; they are the way they are because that is as far as we have come to date. They are the best efforts of our ancestors and fellow planetizens, and if they have shortcomings, it is up to us to continue that effort, pick up where they left off. Bjarke Ingels Group's (BIG) grand mission is to find a pragmatic utopia, shaping not only a particular structural entity, but the kind of world we wish to inhabit. This book examines BIG's odyssey of architectural adaptation
As a team of architects, designers, builders and theoreticians, BIG's reputation and success is well known and widely respected. Architectural or urban design projects or in the research and development field, they are known to actively respond with creative and progressive concepts. This volume reveals their signature design philosophy through the detailed presentation of over 40 completed projects.
Concise lessons in design, drawing, the creative process, and presentation, from the basics of “How to Draw a Line” to the complexities of color theory. This is a book that students of architecture will want to keep in the studio and in their backpacks. It is also a book they may want to keep out of view of their professors, for it expresses in clear and simple language things that tend to be murky and abstruse in the classroom.

"CLOG's first issue focuses on the Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG), a firm unique in that its rise and rapid output has kept pace with, and is inseparable from, online media. Having emerged from the dissolution of PLOT (the 2001-2005 partnership of Bjarke Ingels and Julien De Smedt), BIG is based in Copenhagen and has published 126+ projects in nearly every major architecture journal, design blog, and popular culture magazine, and has thus far completed nine buildings. In late 2010, BIG established its first full overseas office in New York City."--Page 7.
This book, Social Infrastructure: New York, one of a series that documents the Bass Fellowship at the Yale School of Architecture studio led by real estate developer Douglas Durst of the Durst Organization, a leading New York firm known for spearheading sustainable high-rise developments, and architect Bjarke Ingels, founder of Copenhagen- and New York-based Bjarke Ingels Group. Their students explored potential synergies between public and private programs in the design of inhabited bridges crossing major waterways in metropolitan New York. The group traveled to Denmark, Sweden, and Norway to research developments that successfully integrated the needs of numerous stake-holders. The featured projects from the studio demonstrate a diverse range of approaches for combining residential, cultural, and commercial activities on complex and dense infrastructural sites in imaginative and productive ways.
