It’s been a few years since GEMS World Academy opened its Lower School in Lakeshore East. The bKL-designed building won a bunch of awards, and did a great job of filling in a difficult space with something that looks like it belongs.
Recently, bKL put out a promotional video showing off its work. Even if you’re familiar with this project, it’s worth seeing it again through the eyes of its creators.
Location: 350 East South Water Street, The Loop
