MR. BIG

Architect Bjarke Ingels is no

stranger to breaking the rules:

He incorporated a functioning

ski slope on Google’s roof and

plopped a residential pyramid

in the middle of New York City,

after all. And the wunderkind is

just getting started.

STATE OF THE ART

Greubel Forsey’s manufacture—

a giant glass building with

a 17th-century farmhouse

attached—may be an anomaly

in the watch industry, but the

blend of architectures suits

the brand, mirroring its

dedication to both preserving

tradition and embracing the

watchmaking future.
