Barry Wark Studio designs projects that explore new cultural sensibilities for the age of ecological awareness. Rooted in architecture but operating beyond buildings, the studio applies lateral and critical thinking for innovative projects across scales of human experience. Our work reflects a contemporary understanding of the environment, employing passive design strategies, advanced technology, and circular materials to create a world that privileges qualities of interconnectedness over those of separation.

Born in Scotland, Barry Wark is an architect and designer who combines his New York-based design studio with research and teaching activities at The Weitzman School of Design, University of Pennsylvania. The origin of his practice is deeply rooted in his hometown of Glasgow, where the climate and gritty qualities of the city nurtured his sensibility for eco-centric architecture. Barry’s work has been published internationally in both physical and digital media, most recently being the cover of FRAME magazine, a leading international publication focused on architecture, interiors and product design. Barry has given lectures and workshops about his research to architects and other design disciplines such as film studios and game developers. His work has been exhibited internationally, most notably at the Dubai Museum of the Future (‘NADARRA’, 2023) and the Venice Biennale ( ‘Printed Parts’, 2022)
