Pi Beta Phi

Northwestern University is committed to design excellence as it improves access to its historic facilities. The unique challenges to improving access to the Pi Beta Phi sorority house were maintaining the classic quadrangle landscape and not drawing attention to a ramp. So we decided not to design one; instead we created an ‘accessible walkway.’  Read more....

Orrington Avenue Residence

Mary and Richard are only the fourth owner of this 1896 home, located in Evanston’s Northeast Historic District, which was designed by prolific Evanston architect Edgar O. Blake.  They were drawn to the home’s historic charm, but wanted to enlarge and open up the kitchen, which had not been touched in decades, to a new family room and the expansive rear yard.  The challenge was how to join old to new…and the answer was the front porch. Weextended the distinctive front porch around the side of the house, wrapping the addition, as a way to knit old and new together, and to support a sagging, cantilevered second floor addition from the 1920’s that did not fit with the character of the house.
