What is the value of creating speculative works of architecture aside from generating conversation? Is it financially feasible to produce such work in the structure of a firm or simply in moments of one's own free time? #iitpropractice

@BrickTsar Do you own any vintage Dacta sets? It would be really cool to see a review of some of them if you have kits in your collection. Especially the town themed ones! I saw a really awesome bus in set 9354 on BrickLink and can only imagine how many other great vehicles exist

@AurinikoShavers @IIT_ARC_413_568 The best part has to be making things that matter to you and your personal mission in design. #iitpropractice

How could the affluence of Chicago's citizens change with the advent of such retail typologies as the BoomBox? What might the life of the city's streets transform into if these objects were more widespread in their placement throughout Chicago? #iitpropractice

Does architectural education offer few accuracies to the realities of the profession from an early stage? Would working with budgets, structural limitations, or the realities of construction encourage further creative and fruitful outcomes with this challenge? #iitpropractice

What platforms are available for the public to express their interests in the future and/or current state of architecture? #iitpropractice

[Garrett Bernhagen @MoPed_MoProblem]

@BrickTsar any clue what plastic TLG used to create its trees like the much coveted cypress and early pines/fruit trees of the 1980's and 90's? Its obvioisly more flexable then normal bricks are!

@sarahshuhuac @IIT_ARC_413_568 How it engages with the general public throughout the site and in the context of its location. #iitpropractice

@steph_hp2401 @IIT_ARC_413_568 I would say it looks to history either to repair something that has since been lost or to create new ideas applicable to old topics.

What could be the impact of implementing SANAA's biennial proposal for Chicago? How might this affect Bronzeville's future? #iitpropractice

[Garrett Bernhagen @MoPed_MoProblem]

Do designers have an obligation in creating iconic civic projects? Is it necessary that buildings attract this attention? #iitpropractice

[Garrett Bernhagen @MoPed_MoProblem]

Are we as designers morally obligated to provide universally acessible design solutions? #iitpropractice

[Garrett Bernhagen @MoPed_MoProblem]

Should all firms include good design as a baseline to something we should all have access too regardless of class? #iitpropractice

[Garrett Bernhagen @MoPed_MoProblem]

@KurtCheang @IIT_ARC_413_568 By bringing forth design alternatives that provide the existing architecture a means to provide this balance. #iitpropractice

[Garrett Bernhagen @MoPed_MoProblem]

Can traditional architects design landscape elements for their projects or is it necessary to hire landscape architects? #iitpropractice

[Garrett Bernhagen @MoPed_MoProblem]

@robbybeckman I would hope that isnt the goal, but rather a consiquence in some cases. #iitpropractice

[Garrett Bernhagen @MoPed_MoProblem]

How do globally positioned firms maintain a coherent aesthetic between projects and therefore continue the firm's identity? #iitpropractice

[Garrett Bernhagen @MoPed_MoProblem]

How can we better integrate the needs of a community when designing to mitigate the chance our projects reach cancellation? #iitpropractice

[Garrett Bernhagen @MoPed_MoProblem]

@zvincentdeng @IIT_ARC_413_568 I think it might be difficult to design a building that can remain used unmodified for a 100 year span. #iitpropractice

[Garrett Bernhagen @MoPed_MoProblem]

How can we strengthen our architectural presentations to both convince clients of our work and overcome misunderstandings? #iitpropractice
