Innovative clothing company Vollebak and renowned architecture firm BIG have collaborated to create the mesmerizing Vollebak Island, an idyllic, self-sufficient adventure village hidden off the alluring coast of Nova Scotia, Canada, in the breathtaking Jeddore Harbour.

The eminent Founder and Creative Director of BIG, Bjarke Ingels, expressed his admiration for Vollebak's dedication to material and technological innovation as they work to produce aesthetically appealing, resilient, and sustainable clothing—a philosophy that fits in perfectly with BIG's architectural ethos of Hedonistic Sustainability. With Vollebak Island, we have successfully combined regional customs with cutting-edge technology to create a self-sustaining, artificial ecosystem, boasted Ingels.


A unique opportunity for discerning people looking to own an unmatched work of visionary design and experience the pinnacle of sustainable, off-grid living will be presented at Sotheby's New York on June 14 as part of Sotheby's Concierge Auctions' Exceptional Global Properties sale. The ground-breaking design vision for Vollebak Island was created in partnership with BIG.
