About the Design Team
Shaping the spaces our projects live in
The Design Team crafts the architectural concept, interior experience, and visual storytelling that define each ISD project—balancing performance, comfort, and aesthetics.
Our 2025–2026 Design Team is competing in the 2025 DOE Design Challenge with a multifamily project that responds to the housing crisis in Chicago. The team is developing preliminary schemes and researching innovative retrofit strategies to meet ambitious energy and resilience targets.
