"I believe that the language of architecture is not a question of a specific style. Every building is built for a specific use in a specific place and for a specific society." - Thinking Architecture by Peter Zumthor
My first trip to Chicago was during a freezing winter day in 1980, and I will never forget the beautiful perspective looking down Adams Street as I climbed out of Union Station. It was bitterly cold, but I forced my family to accompany me to the end of Adams to the Art Institute of Chicago. At the time, the institute was hosting 5000 years of Korean traditional art.
