Chicago 07: Crown Hall Interior

[Photo: Crown Hall Interior]

When you're inside Crown Hall, you can see why it was famous--it's a huge space with a roof seemingly supported by nothing at all, surrounded by windows. There are some "walls", but they don't go up to the ceiling. That white "wall" in the background is actually a cabinet. Stacked on top are student project models--they had to build a chair out of cardboard, one that would support a person's weight.
