Our relationship with the built environment is continuously evolving. Environmental challenges, economic and social inequalities, shifting living patterns, and polarizing politics all contribute to the constant reshaping of the physical spaces and intangible conditions that bring people together—or keep them apart. Within this shifting context, how can architects and designers help create common spaces that build stronger and more equitable communities?
Common Chicago features projects by a spectrum of Chicago-based designers that address this question across a variety of scales and programmatic functions, including civic, institutional, housing, and open space.
Featuring large-scale drawings, collages, and conceptual models, Common Chicago presents thoughtful approaches to how buildings and common spaces can contribute to a thriving, equitable, and sustainable Chicago.
Note: The MAS Context Reading Room is located on the second floor, which is only accessible by stairs.
