This design revolves around developing a thorough investigation into the Chicago building and zoning code. Give three different sites within the city, I analyzed each site with the Chicago building and zoning regulations. Upon choosing the site at Webster Avenue, I further developed a schematic drawing set covering the following: • A1: FLOOR PLANS • A2: REFLECTED CEILING PLANS • A3: SITE SECTIONS • A4: BUILDING SECTIONS • A5: WALL DETAILS • A6: FIXTURE SPECIFICATIONS • A7: PROJECT SCHEDULE • A8: PROJECT TEAM • P1: RISER DIAGRAMS • M1: MECHANICAL PLANS • E1: LIGHTING PLANS • E2: POWER PLANS • FP1: FIRE PROTECTION PLANS 36

This task lamp was conceived to address the lack of light placed in studio work stations. The core idea of the task lamp is its ability to slide from left to right, allowing for two users to adjust the amount of light needed to work at night. 42

Located on the penthouse floor of the Harris Bank building addition in Chicago’s Financial District. The mission was to resolve the stagnant nature of a co-working office environment. • Promote cross collaboration between entrepreneurs • Develop an advanced work-space that electronically syncs all media devices to a personal vehicle • Store information in a cloud system • Flexibility to work alone or break out into group discussion GROUP COLLABORATION: R. HICKS, R. JAIMES, R. TRETOW ALL PHASES OF DESIGN WERE EQUALLY WORKED ON BY ALL THREE GROUP MEMBERS TOGETHER.

The conceptual idea of a pinball machine is portrayed in the diagram to the right. The vehicles act as the balls, which begins a game through the entry plinth. The smart walls act as the bumpers. Collaboration occurs when users frequently interact between the vehicles and smart walls. The launch tubes are meant as areas of repose and regeneration, pointing to significant views in the city.

• Allows the user to integrate personal devices: cell phone, tablet, lap tops etc • The vehicles float due to an electrochromatic system similar to the magnetic rails used by high-speed trains. • Each vehicle operates on a node tracking system alerting other users working on similar ideas • The bumpers are made up of a kit of parts, which arranged in various positions allowing users to gather in different group sizes
