Today is Friday, September 10, 2010 and this is our final wrap up day on the Slow Home Project! We are looking at the results from our last city, Chicago.
Together, we analyzed 598 floor plans of three housing types in Chicago and 47% of them met the minimum design quality threshold of 13 out of 20 points on the Slow Home Test. This places Chicago ahead of Atlanta (36%) but behind Philadelphia (53%) and quite a bit back from Vancouver (79%).

We are also very happy to announce the winners of the Slow Home Awards as voted by you for Chicago!
The Slow Home Award for Best Apartment / Loft project goes to “Solstice on the Park“, Unit 1803 designed by Studio Gang Architects and developed by Antheus Capital.
The Slow Home Award for Best Townhouse Project goes to “500 Hyacinth Place“, Type C , developed by Highland Park Illinois Community Land Trust and designed by K2 Studio architects.
Congratulations to the winners! John and Matthew will be visiting the projects and presenting the awards in the near future.
