Introducing BIG!

Introducing BIG!

Archilife’s monograph is the first complete volume on BIG’s work to be published including an essay by Geoff Manaugh an interview with Bjarke Ingels by Jeffrey Inaba and an introduction by Boris Brorman Jensen.

 

‘BIG is maybe the first Danish architectural office to be truly “glocal” in the sense of both anchored in Copenhagen and clearly rooted in a particular cultural and political context – and at the same time being the most globally acting architectural office in Denmark….One of BIG’s main contributions is in my view this deliberate effort to position contemporary architecture within a new post-national identity. And most important – they are doing so without ending up in an uncommitted all-inclusive political act of compromise.’
