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.
