CHI-Design: CADE Tower

Location: Chicago, Illinois

 

This CHI-Design project is an ideas project to envision a new center focused on architecture, design and education. CHI-Design is intended to begin a dialogue about an existing new building typology and to serve as an idea-generator for new approaches to collaborative educational space. For this project, we were tasked with giving these ideas physical form. We had to conceive an urban design campus that encompasses the following:

 

          - New Headquarters, visitor’s center and exhibition               space for the Chicago Architecture Foundation                     (CAF)

          - HQ for the council on tall buildings and urban                       habitat (CTBUH)

          - Design allied high school

          - Learning spaces for out-of-school youth                                       programs
