Senior Designer and Team Leader at Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture (AS+GG), Anthony works on high-performance projects that focus on the design, development, and use of parametric computational tools that push the boundaries of integrated performance-based design. During his 12+ years of experience, Anthony has designed many structures through this integrated design process. He seeks to find new ways to realize a project using low-tech methods—such as 3D physical models—and high-tech processes like advanced computer simulations. Beginning in 2012 Anthony started a series of quarterly “hack-a-thons” to accelerate and organize research and development at AS+GG. The hack-a-thon’s after-hours format has become a vital, vibrant, and necessary program.

Come and hear from Anthony where he began, how he got where he is, and what he plans to do next! For more information, please visit the AIA Chicago website.
