In reply to d_. Especially with the garage entry, yes.

The only real negative I see is having to walk up all those stairs with the groceries!
Perhaps a closer look is needed if you compare this to a first-year studio project. They have no concept, yet if you can make it appear simple, you have succeeded because that is a very difficult...

I like it. Here's why: 1. The client has the advantage of amazing imagery to judge whether the design suits them or not. They obviously love it, and it meets or exceeds their family's program (ma...
Can we all agree that, at best, Bjarke's a mediocre architect and a sales and marketing genius?

Smells like Subarquitectura 360 HOUSE: http://www.dezeen.com/2010/09/03/360-house-by-subarquitectura/
A unique design and a good example of the type of design that many architects arrive at when thinking outside of the box. Like this one, most should have stayed in the box. I hope the prospective...
It has been done. This project is even called 'the loop'. http://archinect.com/firms/project/29878/guggenheim-helsinki/117649873
How lovely. Now you can wake up with your lungs full of carbon monoxide poisoning every morning as your garage has merged with your house.
Oh look! A project from BIG where you can walk up a ramping roof plane.
How do you get that last car in the row out?
BIG is the Khardashian of architecture!
Dear BIG, Enough with the looping. Sincerely, Everybody.
How will they get the last car out if they are all parked in a row? Just a question, not hating :)
What's up with all the hating? Pretty cool house i'd say!
Why wouldn't you put the garage at the centre?

Tired of these pretentious diagrams... they are for laypeople. Architects who need these things to justify their work probably got stuck in 1st year of architecture because they can't instantly j...
Why would I want a courtyard in the middle of nowhere? Privacy in a house made of glass? Those diagrams are stupid: add arrows outside the square and we'll see a dead idea.
Showcasing the cars to who?..the livestock?..his family? Looks more like a museum than a home. Dreadful.
Big Joke...no...unbridled chutzpah...yes. Go for it Bjarke. Have fun while you can.
Another midlife-crisis dream come true. Looks interesting but if you stop to think about this for, let's say, five seconds you realise this has nothing to do with user-friendly, comfortable livin...
mmmmm diagrams!
Why so introvert when you've got all this landscape around?
Reminds me of Toyo Ito's "U" house. Resurrected.

Car... collector. Freakin', rich people.
Every BIG project now consists of two slabs of white, no structure and silicone glazed curtain wall with no mullions.
I really admire BIG's conceptual, strategic and analytic diagrams. Each move is clear, justifiable and seems to be the appropriate and almost obvious progression. It's satisfying to see the same ...
Love the courtyard! I only hope that the garage is well ventilated to prevent gasoline fumes from entering the living space. Otherwise, I would happily live here with my family.
I'm going to vomit.
Have they not seen Ferris Bueller's Day Off?!
