Those are some clean clean shoes u got there boss.

When I was a child, I had all of these dreams and ideas that I wanted to create, but I thought there was nobody that actually did these kinds of things. in this world we are so skeptical about if something can be or not be done that we don't even take the chance of failure and don' try to reach your dreams. Videos like this are creating a much better environment for the world, where we go out to create our own dreams. This is why I want to be an architect.

man these ideas would get shit on by my studio professor lmao.

*says mine craft once in the video* "Architecture is minecraft"

I’ve been playing Minecraft since I was 10, and still do to this day at 18 years old. I’ve spend these past years making multiple cities and experimenting with the craziest building and urban planning designs. My biggest project yet it a world I have been working on for 5 years now. It covers a little over 1 million square blocks, and is a world where I experiment with building designs and the layouts of neighbourhoods (parks, highways, building zoning, public transit,…). I believe that this game has extreme potential to influence design in the future. I actually want to become an architect because of this game.

Architects draws.... Engineers cries.... :P

I started playing Minecraft in 2010 on architecture servers, today in 2020 I’m a junior working for his degree in Architecture and Architectural Engineering at CU, thank you Minecraft 👍🏼

describing lego mini figures as "the largest ethnic group in the world" has me reeling. i don't know what to do with this information

I study Architecture and am not far from getting my Licence in the next few years. As a kid I was obsessed with Minecraft. Apart from designing on paper and MS Paint back then, Minecraft served as a CAD any kid could use to unlock their creative mind.

This is why Ingels' buildings are so much more interesting than some other starchitects. He is looking to science and urbanism and human desire for design inspiration and not just expressing a personal ego-driven architecture brand.

Eversince i was a kid and i watched any manner of sci-fi movies i thought to myself, having taken notice of the architecture, that some day it could be real and the people who had designed them had some thought of reality. now at age 22 and an architectural graduate i see that many things are possible for the evolution of architecture and our future. i agree with your video. the world craft.

Fantastic video, Ingles has amazing command over his ability to articulate complex design ideas verbally and visually

Perhaps when the rest of the world finally catches up to the quality of life of Northern Europe, there will be jobs for this kind of architect again. In the meanwhile, we're gonna be building a whole lot more boxes.

this is so motivating... one instatnly becomes happier

2 words. Client budget.

How to turn dreams into reality - find some incredibly good engineers :D

As an architect, I agree with everything that was said. Speaking of Minecraft, I would add, that we should have more modular solutions (we partially have it wit BIM), concepts that can be merged (similar to what was explained in the video) but also replicated, scaled and spread more easy, so that - for example - every city has a power plant that does something awesome/unique.

You guys just combined 2 of my favourite things ARCHITECTURE & MINECRAFT absolutely loved the video and I too want to be an architect someday

Im danish myself, and I dream of having a medieval style house, but I also love the modern interesting designs, Im just sad to see so little of them. This video is super inspiring, I love it ^_^

this feels so motivating thank you ^^

Cool video, thanks. Great storyteller and idea shaper. Shame the smoke rings thing never worked.

Love the video ... Very inspiring ... And didn't ever know that architecture has been contributing in this manner to the society and to this world .. oh yeah it is 'WORLD CRAFT' ...👏

Me just scrolling through the recommended section: *Reads title* “Oh. I think I will watch this.”

I actually like modern architecture. It is simple. It may be boring but knowing basic color theory can turn a home to pleasing atmosphere. Technically minimalism at its finest. Less stuff = more space= less stress

really love the way he uses fiction and documentary to describe the what is architecture. brilliant!

Bjarke, beautiful narrative to strive for!

His sales ability is at the level of artistry.... I am just in awe

Wonderful ! And great conclusion ...

Architects are huminty's greatest and most underrated artists since we live in their artistic expressions

"Awww man, now I can put Minecraft in the title"

Did this beautiful video make anyone else cry?..

I just really want to see his design process

Thank U for sharing...

And this guy is so young!

every architect is gonna go play minecraft after this...

I wonder if his geography has an effect on his ability to think as he does. Im not being judgmental but the architects in the U.S. who are in his range haven't become as popular- to me.

Thank you, it was a very beautiful video.

Is sims acceptable?

Creo que es la primer vez en mi vida que me he emocionado viendo como alguien habla sobre la arquitectura, solo puedo dar gracias de que exista gente como Bjarke. Gracias.

I love both architecture and inception.... did you make this just for me?

hats off .....biggest inspiration

So inspiring :,)

I need a link to that marker...

Great video.

Inspiring ♥️

This guy is my favorite Architect!!!

Hello! 🙋‍♀️ Bjarke, I love you young man. When Can I live one of those Lego community in suburban of US? I need a small independent house living but connected with others for active retirees. Why not build house 6D instead of 4D just like Bee house? It’ll give more light and space in my opinion.🤷‍♀️ You’re so talented and you have a beautiful mind! Thank you! God bless!♥️🙏.

I don't believe in this guy's theory or vision for architecture because architects can dream as much as they like and create these fabulous creations only for the client and local councils to bring them back to reality and strip the soul out of these designs. The reason why we have boring buildings everywhere is that we have uncreative people (clients, councils, codes) telling creative people (architects) what to do and how to do it to a certain extent. I'm a practicing architect in Sydney Australia and every time I try and push the boundaries with my residential designs, clients often don't see it as I do because they've looked at a display home and can't think outside the box and then if the proposal does make it past the clients, the councils give you hell over approving your design but would much rather approve a boring design that is like every second home. This is the biggest frustration of being an architect hence why I think this guy's theory does not work.

Great video. But... "Bigamy?" Cue Dr. Evil saying, "I call it: 'Preparation H.' What? Why does everyone laugh when I say that?"

Incredible!

I imagine a future where AI becomes powerful enough to do most of the heavy lifting in architecture design, letting amateur creators make buildings in a similar way to how they would create in a game like Minecraft or Besiege (albeit a bit more advanced, think Shenzhen I/O in terms of level of intellectual commitment rather than Minecraft). The AI would set up rules that adhere to reality, and it would notice weak points and suggest various fixes, suggest solutions for plumbing and heating, and almost everything else that today needs to be carefully planned by a human with a thorough education in architecture design. Through advanced AI we could essentially gamify the process of designing a real, functional building. We could even take it a step further and use the technology for city planning with realistic simulations of traffic flow, economic and ecological impact etc. If we make the creation of solutions to our problems more accessible, we get so many more possible amazing, creative solutions. And with a wider set of solutions, it should become so much easier to discover the best possible ones, especially if you can keep metrics on things like cost, environmental impact, estimated build time etc. You could even let people work on each others designs, letting the community improve them little by little as a collective effort to improve efficiency, functionality. aesthetics and so on. I sincerely believe (and hope) that this is what the future holds.

great stuff

Great .Thanks

That's why I wanna be an architect

I want to work like this.... Is a dream sketch in a huge paper!

Esos seres son llamados seres de LUZ. Tienen con un compromiso orgánico de transformar el MUNDO para el bienestar humano....

great vid

What are your building blocks to getting there?

this man sounds exactly like Arnold Schwarzenegger

World Changing Power of Architecture!

Green SUSTAINABLE ecoLOCAL architecture ia a best future trend for our magnifique planet EARTH.

does anyone know about the name of the music? tell me please. thx

Yes, we definitely need more surreal dreams and fewer boring white boxes in our inhabitable space.

Very inspirational

It all starts off with an idea

8 house is masterpiece!

An architecture student myself, this is one of the most amazing videos I've seen regarding my craft

Angels thinks and creates outside the constraints of mediocre .... transformation is his motivation!!! I enjoyed Bjarke's thesis and most of all his drawings as he told the story of Architecture changing into today's reality.

Great architect of our time..

Does anyone know the song in the background? Thank u xo

Zaha hadid once said: let them build boxes and Frank Gehry replied with his unfold midle finger.

I wasn’t so inspired in a long time

That's Funny I love playing Minecraft the Building side of it is SoO Good for the imagination and I'm wanting to be an Architect so maybe I could use this for my interview for I'm older P.S Thanks for this really inspirational vid

so great

Maybe they can pull this off in some cultures, but the three I'm familiar with only dream and talk of these things. In Canada, not enough doers, in the USA, too many doers, not enough dreamers, and in Costa Rica, not motivated, yet. "Only exhaust from energy plant is Steam and Co2" ?

doofinsmirtzs evil Incorporated

My dream of being an arxhitect came to be because of minecraft

why dosen't this video have more views?

interesting idea

Seeing this video, I want to cry.

AMAZING

This is probably one of my favorite videos ever and I haven’t even watched the video

super inspiring

Totally correct! Now we just have to be willing to spend the money...

It's easy to talk for a guy who set up his architecture studio in his third year of university, for someone who money never was a problem.

nice...but starting with 'documentary to document' ?!

But this stuff costs money. Lots of it

the dream home theory had me hooked

good job

"hey gen z's, wanna be architects?"

Sentimental background music always makes the speaker seem so full of himself... I mean he could also sit next to a chimney with a glass of cognac, it's as pretentious as that.

when you studied in tokyo, did you need to use japanese???

Doofenshmirtz building in the opening panel

Building today are "Boring and Boxy"... Wants the real world to be more like Minecraft... Hmm mixed messages here.

I am a huge fan

😭 i thought im the only architect that loves minecraft💙 thanks!

Gr8 works

Anyone else think he sounds like arnold schwarzenegger at times. Arnold of the architecture.

This video looks very interesting but if somoeone can translate it in french it's will be awesome for us

Can I have that? I'd like to put it on my wall...
