8 spaces that innovate

Fresh noncommercial  concepts open their doors with new technology, an eye toward community and inspiration from the good old-fashioned outdoors.

New noncommercial concepts include a 70,000-square-foot dining commons and an aerospace-themed student center. 

The Marketplace caters to the business school’s diverse student body via a 10,000 square-foot space inside the school’s Global Hub.

Since the University of Chicago Medical Center was completing a floor-to-ceiling redesign and expansion of one of its patient kitchens after just one year, the project proved a chance to perfect. 

Hybrid restaurant Corridor uses streamlined planning to solve staffing troubles.

Line times at one campus eatery were slashed by an average of 23%.

When revamping, the design process can feel like fitting together the pieces of a puzzle: What needs to fit in the space, what’s the most efficient flow and more?

Design is all about catching the eye, and it’s beneficial to be far-sighted. Design schemes that evoke far-flung geographic regions can be done to great effect.
