A grand staircase connects the foyer to the main auditorium, while overlapping levels create visual connections between the different program areas. The new center repositions the campus entry from the main quad, known as The Beach, to Charles Street.

At the foot of BIG HQ, BIG’s Landscape team has transformed a former parking area into a 1, m2 public park and promenade, inspired by the sandy beaches and the coastal forests of Denmark. A plethora of in-house perspectives allows us to see what none of us would be able to see on our own.

BIG has grown organically over the last two decades from a founder, to a family, to a force of Our latest transformation is the BIG LEAP: Bjarke Ingels Group of Landscape, Engineering, Architecture, Planning and Products.

The Sail is designed to achieve Passivhaus certification for highly energy-efficient buildings.

The Sail BIG Bjarke

The building combines spaces for meeting and student resources, a digital media center, a performance space with seating for people, art and dance studios, music rehearsal spaces, and a dining hall all under one roof. The design negotiates the sloping grade of the site to allow direct entry on all four levels, enhancing accessibility while maintaining a human scale.

The Bloomberg Student Center is encircled by a ft-diameter brick staircase that connects to a series of terraces and green spaces designed by MVVA. Rainwater collected from the roof irrigates the planting, while paths connect the site with its surroundings and guide visitors to the entrances.

At its heart - underneath the solar paneled rooftops - the creative commons is a cascading, four seasons meeting space for students and faculty - academic, cultural, and social activities alike. Supporting over student organizations, the four-story Bloomberg Student Center serves as a welcoming front door to the JHU campus.

Freedom Plaza will extend BIG’s contribution to New York City’s waterfront, alongside adjacent coastal projects that include the East Side Coastal Resiliency project, the Battery Park City Resiliency projectand River Ring in Brooklyn. Built with mass timber construction, daylight-optimized interiors and an energy-producing roof, it is both a low-impact infrastructure and a cultural hub - offering an inclusive space for Rouen and its visitors.

The Bloomberg Student Center is a ,sq-ft, cascading village of timber pavilions that stands as the new hub of student life at Johns Hopkins University.

The Robert Day Sciences Center and Kravis Department of Integrated Sciences fuse facility and program, with multi-disciplinary expertise, problem-based learning, applied ethics, and higher human intelligence in an era of AI. BIG has grown organically over the last two decades from a founder, to a family, to a force of Our latest transformation is the BIG LEAP: Bjarke Ingels Group of Landscape, Engineering, Architecture, Planning and Products.

The central 'living room' tying the spaces together is sure to become a new arena for both expressing and witnessing the student experience at Johns Hopkins. The timber structure creates a warm and acoustically comfortable environment, while the clerestory windows set between the roof planes bring natural light deep into the interior.

The cascading interior spaces open onto four revitalized public areas: an events-focused commons, the shaded walkways of the Grove, an entry plaza along 33rd Street, and a new food hall and plaza to the south.

Tugged into the topography, the center is a four-story building where every floor is directly accessible from the outside, from every side. The sum of our. The Mountain is a hybrid combining the splendors of a suburban lifestyle: a house with a big garden where children can play, with the metropolitan qualities of a penthouse view and a dense urban location.

The light-filled structure features a roof integrated with nearly 1, photovoltaic panels and provides a central gathering space for the Homewood campus, connecting it to the neighboring Charles Village. Since joining BIG in as Chief Financial Officer, overseeing the development of the organization and its strategic priorities, Sheela has transformed BIG from Bjarke Ingels’ Danish architectural firm into an internationally acclaimed company led by design, community and innovation.

Like the indoor counterpart of The Beach - the circular sloping front lawn of the Homewood campus - the Student Center is open and inviting in all directions.

A plethora of in-house perspectives allows us to see what none of us would be able to see on our own. The new Robert Day Sciences Center at Claremont McKenna College maximizes multidisciplinary integration and interaction: each level of the ,sq-ft building is oriented in a different direction, channeling the flow of people and ideas between the labs, classrooms, and the surrounding campus.

Our latest transformation is the BIG LEAP: Bjarke Ingels Group of Landscape, Engineering, Architecture, Planning and Products. We can no longer rely on siloed disciplines within the sciences or between the sciences, social sciences, and the humanities to meet the challenges and opportunities of our time.

Serpentine Pavilion BIG Bjarke

This shift not only opens the university to the adjacent Charles Village, but it also sets the stage for future development along this corridor. From the city side, the PV-covered roof hovers above a new public forecourt that extends the urban fabric to the river.

The forecourt combines open plazas paved in local stone with pockets of planting and trees, creating shaded gathering areas and green buffers around the building. As the individual timber pavilions join together, they leave generous openings in between, allowing daylight and views to reach every corner of the building.

Named in honor of our great friend and alumnus Michael R. Bloomberg, this visionary building will be a vibrant forum that embodies our commitment to bringing people together across differences of experience and interests, igniting their exchange of ideas, and strengthening our sense of community.

The mass timber construction not only substantially reduces the embodied carbon footprint of the building, but also provides an atmosphere of welcoming warmth and inviting informality.
