Full Description

This publication charts the multi-disciplinary practice of Brooklyn-based architecture and design firm BAAO. By delving into a cross-section of projects from acclaimed single- and multi-family residencies in Brooklyn, to institutional and retail projects like the Maple Street School and the Body Factory Midtown, to propositions like Chromatic Energy Landscape that fuse engineered technologies with ecological processes like photosynthesis and algae production, this eponymous publication highlights the diversity and ingenuity of BAAO Architects practice.

About the Author
Founded in 2007 and led by its principal Alexandra Barker, BAAO works across sectors to probe the division between public and private space. At the heart of the practice is a long-term investigation into how materials, structures, and systems inform, reshape, and blur this distinction. BAAO principal, Alexandra Barker, is currently an associate professor and the coordinator of the MArch programme at the Graduate Architecture and Urban Design Department (GAUD) in the School of Architecture at Pratt Institute, New York, where she has taught since 2001.
