Biophilic Visions: The Conceptual Works of Ward | Blake Architects represents a large cross-section of the firm’s work, from its beginnings to the present day. While most monographs showcase built work, Biophilic Visions explores Ward | Blake Architects’ unbuilt projects, giving them a new life in print. These 24 projects are testament to the quest architects face in pursuing designs to fruition and keeping the concepts alive in the face of economic, socio-cultural, and architectural adversity.
Based in Wyoming, Ward | Blake Architects works across the United States and beyond. Each of its projects are carefully designed for its location, rich in materials and detail, and embedded with the firm’s approach to biophilic design. Paying attention to views, natural daylighting, healthy materials, and mechanical systems, the architects create buildings and spaces that are not only respectful toward nature and their extraordinary settings, but also to the health and wellness of their occupants.
Biophilic Visions is an invaluable source of thought and creative ideas for those who appreciate modernist design, biophilic solutions, and ingenuity. Illustrated with architectural renders, elevations, and plans, each project is accompanied by an insightful description of the design process and solutions, and the architects’ re-evaluation of the unbuilt work.
Ward | Blake Architects was founded in April 1996 by Thomas E. Ward, AIA and Mitchell T. Blake, AIA. Located in Jackson, Wyoming, the firm creates buildings and spaces for their particular site and region, while embracing cutting-edge construction materials and techniques and biophilic design solutions. The firm is dedicated to biophilic design solutions where its projects fit naturally within their respective environments and provide wellness to the occupants. The architects pay attention to views, natural daylighting, healthy materials and healthy mechanical systems, and to creating superior building envelopes that help reduce the need for mechanical systems to control the indoor environment. This bio-climatic approach results in buildings that make the occupants feel good without complicated or expensive technology. Ward | Blake Architects have received numerous regional, national, and international awards, and its work has been seen in thousands of publications. David Buege is Professor of Architecture at the Fay Jones School of Architecture. Educated at Princeton University and the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, he has also taught at Auburn University and the New Jersey Institute of Technology.
