"Bjarke Ingels is a design activist whose design philosophy is "Hedonistic Sustainability". He believes creating sustainable architecture should be fun. He creates unusual structures that bely expectations while remaining environmentally sound."

"Bjarke Ingels infuses his architecture with a unique blend of the pragmatic and the utopian, creating a juxtaposition between striking design elements and local features. His buildings always have a surprising appearance while fitting right into the landscape and the terrain."

"Bjarke Ingels designed a proposed stadium for the now Washington Commanders that included a moat surrounding the venue which, in the offseason, could double as a wave pool and beach."

As Jim Hightower said, the only things in the middle of the road are yellow stripes and dead armadillos. Of course, there was once Armadillo World HQ in Austin where some band called the Grateful Dead performed on occasion. I've seen the photos to prove it.
