Description
Summary:"BIG Atlas maps the architecture of Bjarke Ingels from the first quarter of the twenty-first century. The book explores the world that he and his studio, Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG), have crafted, exploring how their philosophy of hedonistic sustainability and utopian pragmatism has been materialized in built form. From a museum that acts like a bridge to a waste-to-energy power plant so clean that its wall can be climbed and its roof can be hiked and skied, BIG Atlas presents the realized works through which BIG has reformulated the world-changing creative power of architecture, giving form to our future." -- Back cover.
