Designed to attract the young, urban, and design-savvy, this 38-unit apartment building is located at the corner of Honore and Montrose Avenue in Chicago, IL, immediately adjacent to the Montrose Brown Line Station. The project consists of one- and two-bedroom units averaging 800 square feet, and provides over 5,000 square feet of leasable retail and restaurant space. Drawing inspiration from the iconic Chicago “El” trains and the remaining manufacturing structures in the area, the building is clad in various metal and brick textures, as if the building were constructed over time, like a small village.
With its undulating brick facade, landscaped courtyards, and generous public walkway, Butler College connects with Princeton’s rich Collegiate Gothic tradition in a fresh and lively way.

In the heart of Memphis, Tennessee is the awakened community of Crosstown. The genesis of this urban revival dates back to 1927, where a premier Sears retail store animated the community.

This is a story of the regeneration of an entire community-lost through strategic Urban Design by International Design firm, DIALOG.

After a year of design renovations, a unit in a well-known high-rise apartment building in the heart of downtown Chicago has received a makeover – in part thanks to Banker Wire’s architectural mesh.

This urban high school is organized into three thematic components: body, mind and spirit, that relate to the various programs and activities within the school that compose the curriculum. The site is zoned according to these thematic areas and bars are created, housing the athletics (body), the academy classrooms and teaching spaces (mind), and the library, arts and music (spirit). The bars slide against each other to create outdoor spaces on the site, programmed for specific activities that work in conjunction with the buildings—entry courtyard, athletics fields, and reading garden. The three volumes (body, mind, and spirit) that comprise the school are created by one continuous wall that snakes back and forth through the site.
