Jeanne Gang, arguably the most important female architect working today, heads her own firm, Studio Gang, which is pushing the boundaries of the good that architecture can do, for connecting communities and for the environment. Gang talked with correspondent Martha Teichner about her most recent project, an expansion of New York's American Museum of Natural History, and about the skyscrapers, airport terminal, and other civic spaces she has designed in her hometown of Chicago meant to transform spaces, outside and within.

Absolutely loved this piece! As a female former civil engineer who now works with astonishingly talented climate change professionals where the leaders are at least 50% female, this makes me so proud. Even in my lifetime, things have changed so very much for the better. And looks what the amazing result is!! Fabulous women like Jeanne given the opportunity to bring beauty and meaning to the world. The structures are stunning, Jeanne!! Thank you so much for the needed inspiration today to take my career contributions to the next level. Can’t wait to see more!!

@starshine3588 Год назад

You’re kidding right? This design is exactly what buildings in the Flintstones cartoon looked like…..she’s copying other people’s designs. This is also how many houses look in poor countries….especially the countries that make houses out of mud or elephant dung….again this isn’t original design…she stole it from many other sources. Are you completely unaware of what exists in the rest of the world or throughout history? This is just another example of a woman stealing designs from others and idiots acting like it’s “such an original design” and “so amazing” because they’re so pretentious. She’s not talented….she’s a copycat.

@starshine3588 Год назад

Oh….and by the way….all of these large buildings aren’t good for the environment. They take way more resources to build and maintain than smaller structures….and they waste energy. So don’t act like what she’s building is somehow “environmentally good”….because it’s not. The weight of them is also causing land to sink everywhere they are built. New York City has been sinking because of the weight of its buildings…just like San Francisco and other cities that have massive large skyscrapers. In the future I’m sure they will all have to be torn down because they will be off balance and structurally unstable because of this sinking.

I’m in awe of the vision and brilliance of this woman and the beauty she has created. It’s world changing. This brought tears to my eyes.

@susannpatton2893 Год назад

Flintstones house made you cry?

@lewstone5430 Год назад

@Susann Patton, my thoughts as well.

@starshine3588 Год назад

Better buildings are being built in Japan and South Korea….this woman isn’t bringing anything original or different to the table. And all of these big buildings are still bad for the environment no matter what they look like. They use more resources and the buildings are more difficult and more expensive to maintain in the long run versus smaller structures. So don’t act like she’s doing something great because she’s not.

@rubytuesdayphoenix Год назад

This is so inspiring and refreshing. I have gotten so cynical about present-day architecture and its blandness and beige-y industrial elements that seemed to be present in every new building I saw go up. I had started to think maybe architecture just wasn't my thing as I could never understand the appeal of Frank Gehry, who of course has been lionized for decades. Jeanne Gang is an amazing creator who really brings out beauty

@starshine3588 Год назад

She stole that first building out of the Flintstones cartoon….and her other designs have nothing on Japanese designs. She’s definitely not original….seen many of these same designs in other countries.

@eelaws Год назад

Wow, my new favorite architect. I love the nature inspired designs of all the projects.

@poolhall9632 Год назад

I think we’ve seen a lot of these shapes before in the 50s and 60s, they just weren’t taken very seriously. There’s no shortage of earth ships and other types of nature inspired architecture. I think she interprets them much better than anyone else

@chrisfinch8637 Год назад

This is the types of stories that will give many of us, a certain vision of what the world would look like, if those buildings can be built there.

@Darhan62 Год назад

Last time I visited the American Museum of Natural History in New York was in the mid-eighties with my grandparents. The dinosaur skeletons and wildlife dioramas were always what impressed me the most. I may have to go back and check out the architecture as well. It's a fantastic museum and it certainly helped inspire an enduring fascination with science and nature for me.

@uchechiuwanaka Год назад

I love her artistic creations... so nice and outta the box! women are so powerful!

@starshine3588 Год назад

She has copied all of these designs….they certainly aren’t out of the box. That first design was straight out of the Flintstones cartoon and poor countries build things like this too out of mud and elephant dung. Japanese design and even South Korean design is so much better than her designs and it looks like she’s tried to copy some of their styles as well. Just because she’s a woman doesn’t make her “powerful” and designing buildings doesn’t make you “powerful” either. She’s not even original….everything she does is copying what a man has done before her…..do you not even look at buildings from all around the world?

@chrisignacio1791 Год назад

Very Inspirational piece Jeanne Gang is Bringing people together through her Amazing Design ❤

@marcbuxton3907 Год назад

Studio Gang's best scraper is aptly named The 100 Building. A perfect score. It's the first building shown just before the 3-minute mark. It faces America's largest urban park, Forest Park in St. Louis. The building has so many different visual impacts depending on time of day and distance or closeness in viewer position. Literally every apartment has a corner view. Gang's revolutionary manipulation of poured concrete floor plates creates vertical sculptures. Aqua during a clear sunset is a sight to behold.

I really appreciate that at her office she was surrounded by women and people of color.

@Seekthetruth3000 Год назад

What do you mean by people of color?

@starshine3588 Год назад

Wow…so you think people should be hired based on their gender or color of their skin….instead of their actual ability to do the job? So you are not only sexist but racist too….good to know. Did you also appreciate the fact she stole the design of the first building right out of the Flintstones cartoon? None of her other buildings looked any different from other buildings designed all over the world either….but you are obviously too busy noticing someone’s skin color to notice what buildings from around the world look like.

@ianellis3242 Год назад

I love your designs, truly beautiful. Are there sustainable manufacturing processes of the concrete that goes into these structures?

@starshine3588 Год назад

No…there are not. These manufacturing processes are the ones people claim are harmful to the environment. Also larger buildings and skyscrapers are harmful to the environment because they take more resources to build and to maintain the buildings and are causing land to sink wherever they are built. Eventually the land will sink to the point the buildings have to be torn down…so they are really just a waste.

@sto620 Год назад

If people like this type of architecture then they should check out the Sagrada Familia designed by the genius Antoni Gaudi. It predates this work by more than a century. Truly visionary and far ahead of his time.

@martinroymervel6488 Год назад

Brilliant and inspiring work. She deserves the next Pritzker!

@starshine3588 Год назад

You obviously haven’t seen many buildings from around the world….hers are no different. And the first building was just like the buildings drawn in the Flintstones cartoon….so she definitely doesn’t deserve an award for copying other people’s work and designs.

@cshubs 6 месяцев назад

I like it, but it looks like it came from the Fred Flintstone school of architecture. It's a fresh change from glass & stainless steel.

@lewstone5430 Год назад

This is hardly original. There are ancient cities, such as Derinkuyu in Turkey, ancient underground sites in Asia that may have been religious centers, and modern homes, that have been built and shaped inside mountains and stone hills or underground. I’m sure Jeanne Gang is a rockstar in the architecture world, and I like her skyscrapers, but this museums’ style looks already dated. Glass ceilings/walls, light, smooth surfaces and open space, is the future. This looks like a dark cavern with rough-hewn walls from the 70’s.

@starshine3588 Год назад

Exactly….that’s what I’ve been saying. She is just copying everyone else from History and they want to report it like she’s something original just because she’s a woman. It’s just ridiculous. Everything she designed was done by a man at one time in many different countries.

@andrewmakin8151 Год назад

birds make their nests because they are birds. termines make the nests of terminates. they don’t copy, get inspired by or appropriate other life forms, seeds, etc? they just be their true selves. why do humans think we get closer to nature by behaving [deisgning] precisely UNLIKE nature does? maybe we should direct our attention and incredible species intelegence towards getting to know ourselves, own species, better, so we can be and behave like/as ourselves, as nature does?

Gardening is regenerating and amusing, I was watching so many tips, those creative recycling wasted materials, when a flower pot looks like a sleeping beauty and vegetals are popping up from her brainless head is... amazing what architects fantasies can do. Covid warning should force people react, the human body self defences is weak, C Vitamin is crucial but no one of us is that lucky to eat two pounds of fruit every day, we drink instead one liter of water a day, that must be C Vitamin, no matter if fruit juice or veggies smoothie, but it's important to realize the problem, we all know what we have to do, these tips are famous since the end of times, about how much we have to be tied to the soil fertility and the healthy harvest for the body health, get in action everybody plizzzzzz, get smart and get ...green friends

We can say, with much certitude, that no CAD monkeys were involved in generating building documents for the non-orthogonal American Museum of Natural History. Gone are the X-Y-Z axes that form the spatial framework for most buildings.

@hadikassar4046 Год назад

How do you think they built it then? 😂😂😂

@rr7firefly Год назад

Funny to you? Maybe you don't know that it would require much more sophisticated program than regular CAD to generate complex curves? Take Gehry's buildings as an example: they use CATIA as an alternate resource. It is also possible that many of the design decisions for that interior were finessed onsite. It would not be the first time.

@hadikassar4046 Год назад

But Catia is a CAD software... Unless you just meant autocad then yeah lol. But the CAD monkeys have been replaced by Grasshopper and revit monkeys and soon enough newer types lol

@rr7firefly Год назад

@@hadikassar4046 Yes, I was thinking of AutoCAD in my original comment. I worked in a few offices where everything was X-Y-Z. Me? I never learned that stuff. Much preferred to draw on paper, build models, and work in generating presentations in Graphic Design software.

Exactly! It’s funny how they couldn’t answer that yet then want to make whole segments based solely on “women” and how great they are. It’s also funny how everything this woman designed has been done before…by men….and that first building copied the Flintstones cartoon which copied ancient cave designs and mud and elephant dung structures.
