Chicago Clarity (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781966742005)

Design affects our mind and influences our culture. From a pencil to a house. From a shoe to our cities. From a light fixture to our lives. The whole of something is the result of individual things. The story of our life is the result of every individual decision we make. The universe is the result of every individual atom. Beauty is the result of those small, individual components. Love is understanding those small, individual components.

This is a series called "Nuance & Notes."

This is a book of nuance in Chicago and notes from my mind.

There's a saying in Chicago that "Chicago's where you go to get great." It is that-a great American city. It's the crown jewel of the Midwest. The mix of the city's blue-collar work ethic and gorgeous architecture creates a culture of pride. Big things happen here. It's a city that doesn't need to say anything, which results in a coolness that permeates the people and the streets. With its fresh lake and intentional emphasis on nature, one has the ability to breathe, think, and be in peace.
