"Jurors professed their fondness for this forward-looking headquarters for a group that advocates for people with disabilities. 'The thought that went into this was incredible,' jurors said.'They went above and beyond, incorporating universal and green design.' The intersection of the two is the building's distinctive strength—for example, lighting incorporates daylight harvesting to reduce energy use, but it can be adjusted to meet the needs of people with visual impairments." – http://aiachicago.org/special_features/2007DEA/awards.asp?subID=840
