<p>Located in an urban context on the south side of Chicago, Illinois, this project is a 55,000 square-foot, natural foods store custom designed to convey an overall sense of openness. The design process, materials, energy, lighting design, water and food-service equipment were all reviewed to optimize performance. Small signs throughout the store identify the features that are deeply tied to Whole Foods&#39; mission. The store was part of the national Greenbuild 2008 Conference tour, with Amanda Tullos as the guide. The South Loop store was also the 2008 ISP/VM+SD Store Design Winner. ​</p>
