CHICAGO, ILLINOIS 1989

Occupied by numerous mercantile uses over the decades, this existing space was converted to a formal lobby for the 10 story building above. Custom light fixtures mark both the exterior and interior. A simple parti marks the core of the building in a contrasting color of marble, floating within the lighter, larger room.
