DETAILS:

SCB is an award-winning architecture, planning, and interior design firm founded in 1931. Today it is a national practice with offices in Chicago, San Francisco, Boston, and Seattle. In 2024, SCB moved its Chicago Headquarters to a new location in the historic AMA Plaza Building, designed by renowned architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. In creating the new space, the SCB interior design team honored the building’s architectural heritage while adding to its story with a contextual, state-of-the-art design studio. Featuring thoughtful details and impactful spaces, the new studio includes high-end finishes, a 3D model wall of the firm's Chicago-based projects, hallmark furniture pieces, a material library, and outstanding views of downtown Chicago and the riverfront. It is optimized for people, featuring daylight access for all, varied and accessible collaboration spaces, and enhanced technological capabilities.

VISITOR EXPERIENCE:

The SCB office is located on the 25th floor of the AMA Plaza Building. Visitors should line up in the ground floor lobby, and three groups of 10 people will be allowed into the SCB office at staggered times throughout the day. SCB staff will offer guided tours of the space for each small group, including a stop by active design studios to view select work in progress.
