Block Party by Studio Barnes in collaboration with Shawhin Roudbari and MAS Context
Studio Barnes created two structures on a plot in North Lawndale that are “born from Chicago’s rich history of annual block parties”.
The first is bright pink and blue and designed to recall the look and feel of a bounce house, or bouncy castle, which are often seen at block parties.
Alongside this, a second smaller structure made from a series of blocks will be used for social gatherings.
