Sometimes we all need a break from the workplace while still working. For Olympic skiers, it’s a new mountain. For cops, it can be a different beat. For day traders it’s the Starbucks on Rush Street.

If you have a team at your firm that needs to get out of the architecture studio and into a different studio to recharge, Ragdale may be just the working retreat you need.
The Lake Forest art colony is taking applications from architects, designers, and artists for a team design-build studio residency.
If your submission wins, you and up to nine other people get an 18-day residency and $15,000 to build your submission. That also includes a studio, housing, and three squares a day from the end of May to the middle of June.
If your team could benefit from getting out of your comfort zone for a fortnight or so, check out ragdale.org for more information.
