Columbia University, and Rice University and is an honorary professor at the Royal Academy of
Arts, School of Architecture in Copenhagen. He is a frequent public speaker and has spoken

2001 and working at the Office of Metropolitan Architecture in Rotterdam, The Netherlands.
Through a series of award-winning design projects and buildings, Bjarke has developed a
reputation for designing buildings that are as programmatically and technically innovative
as they are cost and resource conscious. Bjarke has received numerous awards and honors, including the Danish Crown Prince’s Culture Prize in 2011, the Golden Lion at the Venice Biennale in 2004, and the Urban Land Institute (ULI) Award for Excellence in 2009.
