C3 Chinatown Cultural Center




CHICAGO CHINATOWN CULTURAL CENTER
Designer: Stephen Coorlas
Professor: Paula Palombo Master Planning, Fall 2006
School: SoA @ UIC


This project uses concepts of rhythm and composition borrowed from music to represent movement throughout the site. The new cultural center is located between an elevated public transportation hub and the historic grounds of Chinatown. It serves as a transitional realm between Chicago's progressive character and China's historic culture.
