Design Chicago Virtual Program: DESIGNING DURING A GLOBAL PANDEMIC

TUESDAY │ OCTOBER 06, 2020 │ 3:00 PM – 4:15 PM CST
COVID CONUNDRUM: DESIGNING DURING A GLOBAL PANDEMIC
LIVE ONLINE PRESENTATION │ 1 AIA/LU

We are part of Design Chicago, the annual residential design conference organized by theMART for the trade. With our partner, AIA Chicago Custom Residential Architects Network (CRAN), we are presenting a virtual program that asks, how are architects, interior designers, and suppliers overcoming the obstacles of designing during the pandemic? When meeting with clients, visiting homes and apartments, going to job sites, and selecting products – how are we working around the limitations, restrictions, and health concerns of the moment? What are we learning as we go? Are we perhaps improving the way we work with clients as limitations force us to adapt our design processes? And finally, how do we market ourselves in such a difficult time? Join us to hear how a diverse panel of architects, designers and a supplier are meeting the challenges of “a different normal” to successfully work with their clients during these unprecedented times.

Speakers:

• Julie Hacker, FAIA (Partner │Stuart Cohen & Julie Hacker Architects, Evanston) – moderator
• Scott Cook, (Regional Director │Carlisle Wide Plank Floors), (theMART, Chicago)
