A Placemaking Approach to Design
AIA Chicago, 35 East Wacker Drive, Suite 250, Chicago IL
Learn best practices of placemaking for land-use planning and intelligent urbanism.
The days of designing for a discrete project are numbered.
Today's most forward-thinking architects are finding it their mission to go beyond their project - in terms of both space and time - to consider, and even encourage, land-use patterns in the surrounding area, and to anticipate, and even influence, future events and unexpected consequences. Join us for an evening of learning, followed by appetizers and drinks, where we will highlight three case studies that illustrate how to implement these placemaking practices.
Attendees will walk away with ideas on how projects can have a positive effect on both individuals and surrounding communities.
