| “ Stefan Behnisch (born 1957) is the most promising
European architect currently introducing state of the art
techniques of sustainable architecture to the USA, that
have already being realized in Europe. His partner for
all these projects was the innovative climate engineering
firm Transsolar. With projects for a laboratory building
in Cambridge MA (Genzyme Center) and one in Toronto ON,
Canada (Center for Cellular and Biomolecular Research)
Behnisch architects have proven that these high standards
can indeed be realized within competitive budgets and within
American contexts. With the commission for the 100.000
sq.m Allston Science Complex at the renowned Harvard University,
Behnisch is moving into the next level of building for
ivy league schools”.
