““First life, then spaces, then buildings - the other way around never works” ”
The Chicago Pattern Project draws from historical precedent to create artifacts that reflect the current socio-political context through multivalent readings. The patterns aim to unearth layers of the objective and subjective urban environment, searching to rebuild environmental attachment, and focus on issues surrounding identity, movement and empirical experiences in the urban fabric.

““In short, no pattern is an isolated entity. Each pattern can exist in the world, only to the extent that is supported by other patterns; the larger patterns in which it is embedded, the patterns of the same size that surround it, and the smaller patterns which are embedded in it.” ”
