Architecture school can be very disapointing at times so it's good to listen to people like Bjarke Ingels from time to time to remind myself why I'm majoring in Architecture and not something else. Great speech, very inspiring!

@StefanVidenov 8 жыл бұрын

+Nemukai Skywalker A bit late to respond but, don't you wonder why Bjarke (almost) never mentions the prices of his projects?

@animcrazy 8 жыл бұрын

+Stefan Videnov no, not late at all...so, now that you mention it, why? my guess is that the scale of the projects affects the cost, but what's your take? :)

@StefanVidenov 8 жыл бұрын

I believe his "architecture alchemy", although genius in a world of plenty, is a bit too costly for the real one.

@animcrazy 8 жыл бұрын

+Stefan Videnov That may well be the case, i realized that when i had the curiosity to evaluate the cost on one of my own projects( and yes, I was shocked) Most of the times, in order to reduce the price, you have to temper with the design and besides it being a heartbreaking process it also delivers a cheaper looking version of your project. In the end and I really don't see the benefit

@StefanVidenov 8 жыл бұрын

I'm a student in a not so rich Eastern European country and I got the chance to make my first real project. Of course the most important factor from the investor (a friend) is the budget. It was mind boggling how much money (or the lack there of) can limit you on what you can do. Each and every special element of a building that makes it different than a cube adds to the cost. So yeah, Bjarke may be an innovator but he builds for the one percent of the one percent and his builds are inapplicable for the general population..

everything they do is literal. BIG is awesome because Bjarke can sell a book to a person that can't read. He's mainly a business man and a great communicator. The office produces simple iconic buildings rather than complex architecture designs.

It is ground breaking in theory and practice - a small request would be for Bjarke to explain the urban design principles and practices when creating the future human settlement. There are so many dimensions to his work that it is challenging to comprehend, but it would be even better to understand. The talk was awesome and I look forward to more technical presentations in addressing urban design as Bjarke sees it in the future or now! Thumbs way up!

@smb123211 5 жыл бұрын

This is a "real" TED talk! So many have devolved into strange presentations of personal opinion on arcane topics by odd characters but Ingels raises both the philosophical and professional level. I consulted for years in project development and can attest that this is one of the best - and most important - talks on the subject I've ever heard. Every student should be required to follow a project - attend meetings, note the evolution of ideas, how one change causes more, the hundreds of simultaneous tasks required to complete a job on time. I am convinced that if folks knew the extraordinary effort that went into a building, computer system, medical device or new vehicle it would change their view that "someone somewhere did something to make this happen." Ingels's ideas are bold and exciting even if you don't always agree with the details.

Totally agree. His talk was good but my reaction to all this modern architecture has always been that they make it look abstract just because they can. Most of it looks like chunks of metal and concrete thrown together. Aren't there architects out there that can push boundaries while creating elegant architecture? must it always look like some abstract sculpture?
