Designing the Future - By Brian Libby

Yards in Chicago is an
example of how underutilized
land can be transformed to
create a multipurpose future.

I think it will be a positive for many of our small towns in America, and
particularly in the hinterlands around cities." Along with that, Duncan
anticipates renewed interest in New Urbanist approaches that help make
non-urban settings walkable, adding that such planning efforts "don't have
to always come with the postmodern or Neo-Historicist style."
Meanwhile, Duncan says commercial architecture is likely to favor one
design shift in particular: natural ventilation. But it was already part of a
trend. "Clients were already talking to us about the importance of naturally
ventilated spaces or including outdoor space within the workplace. Now
it's become more of a need than a nice thing to have."

Before the pandemic, for example, SOM was designing an
office tower for a developer in Wuhan, China. Pre-COVID,
"we had been talking about operable windows, but after the
virus hit, the client said, 'Absolutely, let's do it.' And instead
of a couple of sky gardens, he wanted them every few floors.
He knew it would be necessary to give a sense of comfort."
Not every office is lucky enough to come with a sky garden,
but given what an upward trend shared spaces are in American
office design, the lesson is broadly relevant.
