Excerpts:
“BIG TIME” is being released at the Copenhagen Architecture Festival on April 29 and in theaters throughout Denmark on May 3.
The film, created by Danish documentary filmmaker Kaspar Astrup Schröder, reveals an alt-look into Ingels’ professional life and the psychological pressure of being a top-tier architect today.
With Ingels’ endless proverbial optimism about the field of architecture, as well as the promotion of his firm’s never-ending roster of game-changing goals, it is easy to forget the fact that he is just one man. One does not have to champion his designs or support his branding techniques to sympathize with the simple fact that being an architect is extraordinarily demanding.
When viewing this trailer or watching the film, consider this: An optimistic spirit for the work you do and the anxiety that comes with trying to make that work bigger and better can coexist in one mind. A hopeful attitude doesn’t negate worry. In fact, in the realm of architecture, a balanced pairing of caution and ambition probably makes us more aware of how to better build for our world.
