@@sweetfruit7769 I have to thank you since I had to revisit and re-watch and this video, just like I did 9 years ago when I posted my above comment (come to think of it, I've come a long way about this topic since then). But no, I wasn't trying to be sarcastic: I really do admire the power to convince with simple ideas.

@@sweetfruit7769 Yes, I am.

I'm studying architecture and i must say Bjarke Ingels my primary inspiration and the best architect of our generation. In this current political and economical climate, we need great men and women like him to point us in the right direction (that "sustainability should bring pleasure not pain") I recommend to read his book, YES IS MORE.

This inspires me so much to continue on with my landscaping dream. .. It gives me hope in this world, or I guess comfort in knowing that there are "steps" being taken for a future I could enjoy. ..

LOOOOOOOOVE the concept of the 8 house. Love it

I love this guy and his team. This... seeing these things come to fruition, among all of the terrible things happening, is what adds quality to my life.

I love this guy! Holy shit I'm glad he exists because now I don't feel the need to become an architect anymore because he's doing exactly what I would have tried to do.

These are such amazing things.

@fifek kid you missed the point. Its sustainable in the since that they are eco-friendly designs because the minimize space needed to build it. They use sustainable as a synonym for healthy living

Very cool. Great talk & amazing work by the love child of Ricky Martin & Arnold Schwarzenegger.

very much inspirational and informational

I cried out of joy seeing these genius projects! Humankind is capable of creating such remarkable master work, so why destroying each other?!? Bjarke Ingels is a visionary! Let's spread these concepts through the world!

awesome guy/projects

I feel the same way! I'm an architecture student as well, and specifically Bjarke Ingels' talks I find quite mind-blowing.

Hes not lying it does feels like a documentary version of inception

True, some people think that enviromentalism and sustainable living is just to protect nature in itself. When it is mostly about protecting ourselves, if we keep on behaving like a bacterial colony we will end like one when the resources run out.

@EloiGantz thanks for the suggestion !

Such an amazing talk, and full of inspiration! Thanks Bjarke Ingels :)

Absolutely amazing, I hope he can cross that Atlantic and really leave an impression here.

Amazing.

that 8 house is the coolest things ever

very impressive!

Kiitos

He sounds like Christopher Walkin trying to do a Danish accent

So cool

This was one talk that I didn't want to end!

@billykovalsky High initial energy costs, but essential to sustainable, liveable architecture.

@LarsDPeterson glass production is one of the most energy consuming process in building materials industry.

some updates on the astana library /talin /waste to energy........would be nice .........i'm a BIG fan :)

We've dreamt of cities that look like this kind of architecture since the 70s, especially the 80s. I wonder what took so long to make it possible

for some reason this reminds me of xkcd's comic on sustainability...

Proud to be a danish constructing architect :D And Bjarke is just one of our great architects..

A genius!

i am studying architecture and i would love to work for this guy

@Esoparagon Why is it a hell hole? What's wrong with it?

Great talk!

INcredible... he's reading our mind over here!

Mindblowing!

Im from America but Danish by ancestry! Hope to visit Denmark someday and who knows maybe move there if america continues to ignorantly decline

Why? I am norwegian and I love to visit it. It got everything we have + cheap beer.

Spread the love, I say!

take the co2 and vent it to the plants into the planter on the walls. the plants will 'scrub' some of it and return O2.

Mind blown.

this guys the man

Look at those capital letters! This man knows what he is talking about.

brilliant!

Awesome video! Building fun, participation, sustainability, & political transparency into architecture & design :-)

genius

Wow. Just wow.

I think this guy was expecting a lot more applause than he received.

how many "sort of" he said?

@fifek Oh, are we facing a glass shortage?

If this is what the future would like, I love it!

Then why does your profile say germany?

GET TO THE CHOPPER!!!

Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Nah. Bjarke Ingels also added a bikini ski slope to his 40+foot garden

If you can capture CO2 that way - why not turn it into a resource? How pure is the CO2? CO2 is used in all kinds of ways, not the least as botanical respiration

Why not direct the non-toxic, CO2-rich exhaust to a hydroponic greenhouse? Instead of blowing smoke rings?

Now that I think about, why dont we already vent large CO2 producing industry to green house farms and let them scrub it for the O2 sending that out into the air. Imagine a power plant / farm that takes the waste and makes food and O2. something everyone needs.

HOP ON THE MOTHERFUCKING AIRPLANE XD

GET DOWN!

...to someone as such...who also maybe a polymorph...things like freedom become curse!!!

@EloiGantz I agree 100% with you... He is the type of architect that new generations of architecture students should strive to be! Yes is more!

I have seen Switzerland and Denmark. Switzerland is preferable, enviromentally, socially and criminal statistics - plus the overall tax burden is less than 37%.

He should've publicly admitted the inspiration and clear influence of the late Viennese artist Hundertwasser - of Ingels so-called "Creating Eco-systems." He's not the originator of it, which some may get the impression by most of these talks? I hold it against him. Despite that, there's much to admire about B.I.

i wish my weird professor watch this and how the architects do nowdays !

Didn't know Arnold Schwarzenegger was into this sort of thing

You do not need to steal half of people's income to provide basic needs for a population.

you have simple sizing issues - do you even realize how many thousands of tons of CO2 is produced by a medium sized powerplant creates, and how massive those glasshouses would have to be? By the way there is a better way - CO2 negative cement....(one that absorbs CO2 in being manufactured, not releasing it).

First 5 seconds and i already know that he's danish. Why must our accent suck so much?

@Pedr0PT Gure penguins

So you call Ingels the opposite? Guy fools everyone

I can't wait until every building in the world doesn't resemble another - a man can dream right? lol

New York... Jay Z & Alicia Keys 😃

try being dutch.

He is a media guy and not working as an architect, the grunt wor is done by hundreds of employees

His designs are too angular.Too many sharp edges and slopes in bizarre places.They look hellish to navigate.

The Danes a.k.a. the Vikings appear to be mixing Frodo shire technology like L'ans aux Meadows with modernity...? .

How do any of his buildings relate to their surrounding context?! I don't see anything beautiful or balanced in Bjarke's buildings..

If only the Danish could stop slaughtering Dolphins.

@LarsDPeterson So the guy forgot what 'essential' really means. Therefore what sustainability means. It bores me, can't you see that it's another postindustrial high-tec with green-coloured description of the project? Check the rest of his designs. Aggresive, arrogant cosumerism architecture.

@Fullofpies what kind of nonsense is this? Fullofcrap must be thinking of another nation!

please build a city in china.

Industrial symbiosis....nothing new....nothing special...
