When the Museum Case Form Meets Function to Bring Perfection at a Top-Ranked Institution!

When working with one of the world’s premier architects to create a new wing at one of the top-rated art institutions in the world, you are challenged with ensuring the museum case aesthetic demands are met in perfect unison with the functional requirements.

EDE used the initial designs to engineer the museum casework.

The process involved determining how to move and install tall, thick, unframed glass doors while custom engineering hundreds of LED fiber optic lighting igniters.

EDE’s engineering and construction of the project executed the minimalist vision of the Renzo Piano Building Workshop to perfection! And the Art Institute of Chicago retained the functionality needed for the space.
