The majority of the world's populations live in countries where clean water supplies are dwindling, and these water shortages are also quickly translating into food shortages. What can designers do to avert looming water-related realities? UrbanLab: Bowling views potential water crises as opportunities to speculate on future urban design possibilities, especially in cities. Several projects are presented that take an ecological approach to re-thinking received urban design methodologies of addressing the design of water-related infrastructures in existing and new cities. Sarah Dunn and Martin Felsen are co-founders of UrbanLab, a collaborative office practicing architecture and urban design. UrbanLab's primary interest is in forward-looking projects that speculate on a more resilient and resourceful tomorrow. Projects span from large urban proposals to small residential projects. Martin Felsen, AIA, is a registered architect in Illinois and New York. He was educated at Virginia Tech (B.Arch, 1991), and Columbia University (MS-AAD, 1994). Felsen is an Assistant Professor in the School of Architecture in the Illinois Institute of Technology's College of Architecture. Sarah Dunn was educated at Columbia University (M.Arch, 1994). Dunn is an Associate Professor in the School of Architecture at the University of Illinois at Chicago. Published 4th Aug 2017 .

  • Common Ground Participants
    Common Ground Participants The selection of participants for this year’s Biennale evolved in response to the Common Ground theme. We began with a desire to emphasise shared ideas over individual authorship, and realised that this required us to initiate dialogues rather simply make a selection of individuals. We began by asking a limited group of architects to develop ideas that might lead to further invitations: everyone was asked to propose a project along with a dialogue that reacted to the theme and showed architecture in its context of influence and affinity, history and language, city and culture. The final list of contributors demonstrates a rich culture of difference rather than a selection of edited and promoted positions. We want to emphasise the common ground that the profession shares, notwithstanding the apparent diversity of today’s architectural production. The sharing of differences is critical to the idea of an architectural culture. (David Chipperfield) 1. Group: 4. Adam Caruso 13178 Moran Street Peter St. John CARUSO ST.

    A new Plan of Chicago: 12 ways to heal a city SEPTEMBER 18, 2014, 5:19 PM sk Chicagoans how to fix their city and you'll hear powerful ideas to rescue flailing schools, cut violent A crime, create attractive jobs and help families thrive. We know this. We asked. Last October, we launched our Plan of Chicago project to fill in blanks left by famed civic architect Daniel Burnham's 1909 plan. His blueprint to build Chicago set in motion a century of astonishing growth and prosperity. But he didn't deliver his follow-up plan to fix this city's grave social problems. Today: Twelve proposals we've culled from thousands. Earlier in this series, we chronicled the pernicious and intertwined crises Chicago confronts in its schools, streets, businesses and homes. Let's underline that word: intertwined. These problems snake through nearly every aspect of life in Chicago, whether you're a Gold Coast entrepreneur or a struggling single mom in Austin. The quality of life in Chicago — its future — depends on innovative, cost-effective solutions to tenacious problems plaguing too many neighborhoods. We asked readers to think big but also small, because narrow-scope remedies can chip away at monumental challenges. Chicago cannot thrive unless its citizens wage battles on every block. Unless everyone with a desire to raise a family, start a business, snag a great job, make Chicago home, can find a glide path to success lit by ... everyone else in Chicago. We've worked through thousands of ideas suggested by readers and by Chicago-area residents who attended the Chicago Community Trust's "On the Table" event in May.

  • Graduate Programs Guidebook
    Graduate Programs Guidebook i ii University of Illinois at Chicago Chicago, perhaps the ur-American metropolis, provides the ideal launching pad for urban and architectural speculation. For students at the School of Architecture, direct access to this model of experimentation is coupled with the resources and opportunities generated by an especially active community of alumni, design practices, and architectural institutions. UIC is one of the country’s major urban public research universities, and it is from this context that the School of Architecture extends its three-part agenda: to condition the metropolis, construct new audiences, and circulate ideas. Established in 1965, UIC is now one of the top-200 research- funded institutions in the world. The School of Architecture benefits from its commitment to building a dynamic and diverse collection of faculty and intellectual, aesthetic, and cultural interests.
