Sean Hutchison is a recent graduate of the School of Architecture at the Illinois Institute of Technology, who is focusing his most recent studies on structural design and integration of new technologies for tall buildings. His work in energy conscious high-rise design received the Jerrold Loebl Traveling Fellowship, awarding him the chance to experience the architecture of several cities in Eastern Asia over the summer of 2017. He hopes to stay in Chicago for the near future, and is currently in the application process.
