Hunting Down Design

After receiving the clues, Adam and I immediately went to the Knowlton Library to take care of the chair clues, as well as to use one of the computers in the library to figure out where else we had to go.

Clue #1

Me sitting in the Barcelona chair at the Knowlton Library. Designed by Mies van der Rohe, this chair requires much hand craftsmanship.

Clue #2

Sitting in the Chaise Longue ("long chair" in English) while reading Form Magazine. This chair was designed by Le Corbusier, and has been nicknamed the "relaxing machine".

Clue #3

The Wexner Center. Designed by Peter Eisenman, its design reflects the mismatched street grids of campus.

Clue #4

The Science and Engineering Library, designed by Philip Johnson. Its arches echo the giant arch of Johnson's AT&T skyscraper.

Clue #5

Thompson Library, designed by Acock & Associates. Its recent renovation cost $108 million and took 27 months to complete.
