Titled Big Shoulders...Small Schools,
the recent Chicago Public School's Design Competition asked the entrants to focus on two issues:
small school size and accessibility. Winner of the North-side
site (New York City's Marble Fairbanks winning
for the South-side site), Santa Monica, California's Koning Eizenberg
Architecture responds to these issues
with a coherent, yet informal design that also relates to, and
strengthens, its surroundings.
