515 N State St.

Civio Studio CDO Eli Robbins was honored to participate in the renovation of an iconic Kenzo Tange skyscraper in downtown Chicago while working at ESI Design (NBBJ) for Beacon Capitol. This installation spatially transformed an immense and uninviting space into a place to meet, engage, and intrigue. Utilizing various approaches to media architecture and environments, this lobby redesign significantly increased the value and experience of a classic building.
