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.On February 9, 2018, national AIA announced recipients of its 2018 AIA Young Architects Award, which is administered by the AIA College of Fellows, and Anthony is one of them. Come and hear from Anthony where he began, how he got where he is, and what he plans to do next. //presentersAnthony Viola, Architect, Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture based in Chicago //event images  a special thanks to the Chicago Design Museum, the AIA:Chicago Foundation and the Dubin Family
