Architecture for living and learning

Architecture for

LIVING AND LEARNING

Select Environments by BKSK Architects

Making Place A sense of place opens us to worthwhile experiences. It fosters learning, relaxation, work, and play, all because we are grounded by a meaningful connection to our physical environment.

Building Community The most successful design processes are those that facilitate meaningful engagement —with how buildings can fully serve their users, the broader community, and the future of that community.

Learning, Continuously Whether we are designing a law school, a library, a gymnasium, or a sanctuary, BKSK believes in the potential of architecture – and of the experiences that architecture fosters – to teach.

Integrating Nature The human condition is inextricably linked with and nourished by nature. By integrating the natural and the built, we enhance relaxation, our sense of delight, and our capacity for collaborative creativity.

Enriching Legacy We believe that the act of preservation can be simultaneously reverent and ambitiously progressive, allowing for a site’s history to participate in a dynamic visual dialogue between old and new.
