Bjarke Ingels | Time Space Existence Interview Series

Named one of the 100 Most Influential People in the World by TIME Magazine in 2016, Bjarke Ingels defines architecture as the art and science of making sure our cities and buildings fit with the way we want to live our lives. From his studio, he underlines the future architecture can hold - a future that follows and responds to a world we know and, at the same time, provides a "punch line" that is completely unexpected but yet totally makes sense in line with the social, cultural and environmental demands and the changing society we live in. Bjarke believes in the idea of information-driven-design as the driving force for his design process.
The European Cultural Centre, in collaboration with global consulting agency PLANE-SITE, has curated and produced an interview series presenting the ideas and practices of the internationally renowned architects. Touching on theoretical and philosophical concerns, as well as personal trajectories, each interview presents a candid discussion of where architecture has been and where it is going.

Has Ingels ever designed a single-family house? or a community center / place of worship / theater set? It seems like every one of this office's projects is on a grand scale. As a consequence how much attention is directed to how different materials meet aesthetically? This is very different from the works of Zumthor (materials palette), Holl (light manipulation and phenomenology) and Thom Mayne of Morphosis (layering and sculptural complexities).
