The studio visited Philadelphia today, to see a number of projects by local firms Interface Studio Architects, Onion Flats, and Erdy McHenry. Most projects were located in the Northern Liberties area of the city, and notable projects included ISA's 100K House, Onion Flats' "Thin Flats" development, and Erdy McHenry's "Piazza". A quick stop at ISA's office gave the studio a chance to hear from principal Brian Phillips, see an exhibit of his work, and hear about ISA's honest and innovative working methods. Brian then took us on a tour of his dormitory at Temple University, "The Modules".
A few select pictures of the day follow.
