Inhaltsangabe

In 1985, disillusioned with the prevailing trends in Modern architecture, Lucien Lagrange left Skidmore, Owings & Merrill and embarked on a series of historical investigations aimed at finding new sources of architectural inspiration.
Since then, he has designed some of the most impressive hotels, offices, and condominiums in Chicago, a city long known as an architectural capital.
Lagrange's work resists easy categorization, combining as it does both Modern and traditional elements in often surprising ways.
His range is extraordinary. He is one of the few architects in America with an equal feel for both 19th-century stonework and 21st-century steel and glass.
In addition, his bold plans for renovating landmark structures have established him as a leading voice in the field of historic restoration and re-adaptation.
At the heart of Lagrange's work is a sense of beauty that is both timeless and supremely elegant.
