This 55-acre Chicago-based development project transformed a historic steel manufacturing site into a multi-use urban complex. The site, formerly Finkl Steel, features office and residential towers, restaurants, indoor and outdoor entertainment spaces, athletic fields, and concert venues.
My role involved leading research and concept design for the wayfinding sign family. Design concepts were inspired by Chicago's historic steel industry, prominently visible in the city's many steel bridges, and Mies van der Rohe's elegantly simple rectilinear forms.
