WISCONSIN CHEMISTRY In designing a new research tower and lecture hall for the University of Wisconsin Department of Chemistry, the architects of Flad & Associates were inspired by the scholars who work there. "This is a group of incredibly bright and talented people," says Flad design principal, David A. Black, AIA. "The building is intended as a simple statement about who they are and what they've achieved."

UPSTAIRS ATRIUM The Amgen Headquarters in Thousand Oaks, California, designed by Los Angeles architects Johnson Fain Partners, was already under construction when the firm Pei Partnership Architects was invited to redesign the fourth and fifth floors for the client's executives.

FOSTER'S NEW CITY HALL At first glance, you would hardly believe it is a public service building. Looking more like a moon base landing unit than a city hall, the Greater London Authority (GLA) building is the latest addition to London's skyline from the firm of Foster and Partners.

ART LIFE PARIS Paris has long had a deep relationship with the lives and work of its artists. The city has been both home and inspiration to some of the greatest artists of the 19th and 20th centuries and to thousands more seeking such fame. Still, many greats and near-greats spend a lot of time searching for affordable working and living spaces.
