I found interesting they do not only architectural designs but also product designs. Are there product designers in the firm or architects also do product designs? @IIT_ARC_413_568#iitpropractice
@JonMBeskin @LATENT_DESIGN@IIT_ARC_413_568 I agree. Low budget, easy to deploy , and improvement of space around neighborhood makes easier for people to be involved the project. I think the more neighborhood engage, the more the project have impact to them. @IIT_ARC_413_568#iitpropractice
I like the idea to change street-side parking to outside terrace space. In the future, less car and more potential to renovating street parking space. Is there any other big picture of re-thinking street space? @IIT_ARC_413_568#iitpropractice
@ZhanhangX@IIT_ARC_413_568 I think, for example, University of Chicago Campus North residential is contributing to Climate change, because the building is sustainable design saving energy use that leads to reduce emission of CO2.@IIT_ARC_413_568#iitpropractice
University of Chicago campus project is good architectural design and well coordinated with MEP. How Studio Gang usually coordinate MEP without sacrificing any aesthetic design #iitpropractice@IIT_ARC_413_568
@HenryCai2018 @JonMBeskin @IIT_ARC_413_568 For the Ping Tom Boathouse, I thought the same thing, and actually there is the traditional Chinese pavilion next to the boathouse. So, I think the big canopy is for the respect to the Chinese pavilion. @IIT_ARC_413_568#iitpropractice
They used the monumental pavilion at Near North Health Services Clinic, and Ping Tom Park Boathouse. What was the design intention or reason behind that? #iitpropractice@IIT_ARC_413_568
@JonMBeskin @JAHNArch@IIT_ARC_413_568 I though one of their interests (or focus) of these projects is the skin of the buildings. UC plant use glass skin which show inside which is not usual for a plant, and test tower use special translucent fiberglass membrane units. @IIT_ARC_413_568#iitpropractice
Some projects such as Japan post in Tokyo, and Thyssenkrup test tower have a special facades. What were the main ideas of facade designs of these projects.

@cmike5566 @IIT_ARC_413_568 For example, regarding the healing projects, I think they do integrate comfortable living practice and functional practice to create comfortable and functional space for patient, doctors, and operators. @IIT_ARC_413_568#iitpropractice
HED has done a lot of medical building projects which requires specific Technics and knowledge. I would like to know what is the best solution for creating spaces that are highly functional and at same time comfortable.@IIT_ARC_413_568#iitpropractice
