DISCOVEREUM
STUDIO / CHILDREN’S MUSEUM IN CHICAGO, IL ADVISOR: KEVIN HINDERS
With the notion that life is a continuous journey, the utilized form is a “Möbius strip” covered in temperature sensitive (thermochromic) glass tiles, for a continuously changing and modifiable public exterior. The sculptural quality engages and encourages interaction. Acting as a mover between local modes of transportation, the entrances highlight the underground CTA red-line, and the prominent elevated green-line, aka the L, imparting the necessity of public transportation and its in/finite nature.
