Word broke on Monday that Todd Williams and Billie Tsien won the job to design the Obama Library in Chicago and I am a big fan. I thought David Adjaye was the heavy favorite or that it might be Snohetta since they are fully zoolander ‘so hot right now’ but TWBTA is going to crush this project and I’m really excited to see what it becomes. So let’s revisit some of their interior hotness on various projects.
They already have a project in Hyde Park at U of Chicago and the lobby of the Logan Center has a lovely glassy stair.
The Barnes Center has so many gorgeous spaces.. and the exterior isn’t anything to sneeze at either.
