Bjarke Ingels Group’s past experience with combining suburban atmospheres and urban densities plays out in Stockholm as a pixelated housing project in conversation with a nearby national park🇸🇪
Reminiscent of BIG’s previous housing designs, such as 8 House, The Mountain, and Dong, when seen from afar, 79&Park brings to mind a hillside sloping up from neighboring national park, Gärdet. Up close, however, the building’s ‘pixelated’ composition of prefabricated units provides spaces on a more human scale – a necessary outcome to evoke the ‘communal intimacy’ highlighted by founding partner Bjarke Ingels. This pixelated building typology, often attributed to Moshe Safdie, is becoming a recurring design principle for BIG, especially when working with large building volumes. As big cities around the world grow denser, and often more impersonal as a result of fast, cheap solutions, the method of using prefabricated units to construct unique habitats on a large scale could be a favorable solution for the development of our urban environments 🌇
