Iconoclasm invades iconic territory with Rem Koolhaas'sdesign for the new IIT CAMPUS CENTER in Chicago.
No matter how much Ludwig Mies van der Rohe's design for the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago, Illinois exemplifies the highest and purest Modernism, 50 years after its construction, the steel-and-concrete structures with brick-and-glass curtain walls look very quiet, almost lifeless.
