April 26, 2016-Perkins+Will Relocation to the IDS Center: studioMPLS + Tour!
studioMPLS is the new, self-designed home of the Minneapolis Office of Perkins+Will, a multi-disciplinary design firm located in the iconic IDS Center. The studio saw the relocation as an opportunity to craft a playful work-in-progress – a constantly evolving maker-space to share work and test new ideas. The April Young Leaders program offered a behind-the-scenes look at Perkins+Will’s new workplace in the IDS Center. The panel featured project team members
Jessica Wolkoff, Anne Smith and Russell Philstrom who shared how they set out to achieve more with less – designing an unconventionally productive and healthy space. Young Leaders also had the opportunity to network at an informal HH at Mission Bar & Grill.
