Architectural context

About Bjarke Ingels

Bjarke Ingels (born 1974) is a Danish architect and founder of BIG (Bjarke Ingels Group). His practice is known for buildings that combine social infrastructure with playful, often paradoxical forms — what Ingels calls "hedonistic sustainability." The catalogue holds 2 of his works in Copenhagen.

Mountain Dwellings (2008) cascades diagonally across its site, stacking apartments above a parking structure so every unit gets a garden terrace and a view. Copenhill (2019) is a waste-to-energy power plant topped with an artificial ski slope, hiking trail, and climbing wall — infrastructure as public recreation. Both projects embody BIG's signature approach: taking an urban problem and turning it into an architectural opportunity.
