Summer interns. Darrell, Brian, Me, Eveliz, Margaret, Kyle
My first project- GCEA Arch Expo @ Congress Hotel Conference Rooms
At this time there were only 2 interns Ben (from London) and me. We worked with actual staff members Darrell, Javier, Erik, and Alex.
Conference Room B
Seminars + Ceremonies @ Conference Room C
AAR- Ben & I are Chicago Tribune Center
ACA Discussion Panel @ CPL on State
Panel was about Backbone structure of Architecture: the economy
Here I got to meet top architects of Chicago...
Eva Maddox (Perkins & Will)
Frank Christopher Lee (Johnson & Lee, Ltd)
Avram Lothan (DeStafano Partners)
Dirk Lohan (Lohan Anderson) a.k.a. Mies van der Rohe's grandson!
Good experience because after the discussion panel we got to talk to each of them.
Since Eveliz was a visitor from Puerto Rico, we all went to the Museum of Contemporary Arts
This is the infamous staircase
Private tour of Marina City Tower
Rooms are tidy and ancient but the views were amazing.
Interior of Milwaukee Art Museum
Exterior of Milwaukee Art Museum
2 hour drive from Chicago
Private tour of Howe Residence (Darrel and Thomas Hickey: architect of Howe Residence)
What's so special about this place? The original house was a 1890's English workers cottage but when the remodeling came, the facade was kept and the building was pushed back a little to make a entry courtyard as depicted in the picture below.
