The events of the world have changed our perspective on pretty much everything the last few weeks. Bjarke Ingels (@bjarkeingels) knows a thing or two about shape shifting. Watch his @abstractdesign episode from Season 1, still streaming on @netflix, and you’ll see what we mean. We caught up with the Danish architect and his firm, @big_builds, to learn about one of their latest projects. When they were tasked with linking a flat forest to a hillside across a river in Norway’s Kistefos Sculpture Park, they didn’t settle for any bridge. Instead, they built “The Twist,” which spectacularly torques 90 degrees midway across the river. Depending on which way you enter, you walk into a horizontal structure and exit a vertical one. Its staggered aluminum exterior recalls the fanning motion of a deck of cards; inside, visitors feel as if they’re walking into the shutter of a camera. But one thing that is no illusion: the Twist’s functionality. When it opened last fall, it doubled the interior exhibition space of @kistefos. We can’t wait to make a pilgrimage.
