Sumario:The article offers a look at Miller/Hull Architects' multifamily housing project in Chicago, Illinois. In addition to the internally driven requirements, Miller had to respond to the external needs of architecture and urbanism. The main facades of the steel-framed building skillfully employ balanced asymmetry. To meet the program's economic demands, the building houses single-story flats, not multistory lofts. The 12 parking spaces, meanwhile, are accommodated solely at grade, not in a podium.
