Gensler Chicago Office

September 24th, 2008 by Jose

Last week we took a look at Gensler’s office in San Francisco. They have over thirty offices around the world, and this fine day we are checking out Gensler’s second office in America’s Second City.

As I mentioned last time (and why wouldn’t you remember every little thing that I write), Gensler is the world’s largest architecture firm. Their Chicago office is extremely interesting; I especially enjoy the way the old-fashioned (the exposed brick wall, the columns) mixes with the new-fangled (the Aeron chairs, the computers).

On a more serious note, I’ve always suspected that architects wear hard hats twenty four hours a day, and photo 7 confirms it. Boo-yah.
