A series of volumes was created to compare potential effects of orientation and spatial relationships on the site.  Chicago, Illinois NW corner of La Salle and Grand.

As the thesis project moves toward the development of a working piece of architecture, the process    begins to highlight several possibilities for the use of a specialized system of unitized panels.  This design for an office building in downtown Chicago will house a workshop, event spaces, gallery and offices for companies that are involved in sustainable design and construction. Integrated louvers, greenhouse space, solar chimneys, and p.v. arrays can all become de-coupled from the thermal envelope with the use of the SpeedClad panel system.
