LAB -
Labs bring together small groups for an exclusive, first-hand look into what happens behind the scenes at some of the most innovative companies, community leaders and institutions around Chicago.
What impacts design decisions when you’re creating a new school, hospital or housing complex? At this Lab created by the American Institute of Architects, teams will identify the best use of an empty, overgrown lot, in a fictitious town. Guided by an architect and using real-world design principles, teams will analyze community metrics, strategize solutions, and make critical decisions related to improving the property. This hands-on game demonstrates the impact architects and the field of architecture can make on communities.
Must be 21 or older and provide valid ID.
