BIG RECENT PROJECT

Description

An impressive volume of recent and in progress work by this highly sought-after young Danish office, which takes the evolution of social infrastructure as its primary aim. According to Bjarke Ingels Group, “by proactively cross-breeding the public infrastructure with social programs we can inject new urban life forms into the heart of our cities.” Through detailed plans, renderings, full-colour photographs and other drawings, the book illuminates BIG’s ideology through its innovative and sometimes mind-boggling concepts. Superkilen, West 57th Street, St. Petersburg Pier, 8 House, and the Stockholm Sphere are just a few of the many highlighted works.
