Building Review (Photo: Tom Rossiter) UNO Soccer Academy, Chicago  - Charter schools, while part of the public education system, offer alternatives to traditional public schools. Many are started by non-profits and provide curriculum specialized in a certain area. The United Neighborhood Organization (UNO) works towards improving the Hispanic neighborhoods in Chicago, and its Soccer Academy on the city's South Side is an important part of this. Focused on the sport as an activity and way to boost school participation, the dynamic school design by Juan Moreno of JGMA with Ghafari Associates is receiving praise from critics and the public alike. Both JGMA and Ghafari Associates answered some questions about the project.   more New Profiles   Architects Khosla Associates, Bengaluru Architects MPR Design Group, Sydney   Architects Hohensinn Architektur, Graz Architects De Matos Ryan, London   Architects AHAD Architekten, Braunschweig Lighting Designers Auerbach Glasow French, San Francisco   Agenda 22 February, EPFL, Lausanne Pieces of Evidence - A Periphery Asserts Itself, Exhibition Opening more   27 February, Perloff Hall, Decafé, UCLA Campus, Los Angeles Wang Shu, Lecture more   27 February, Austrian Cultural Forum New York, New York Socio-Political Maps: A Participatory Public Discourse on the City more   28 February, BOZAR, Brussels Belgian Architecture Beyond Belgium, Book Launch more   29 February, Az W, Wien Az W akut: Alles bleibt anders!, Panel Discussion more   16 March to 28 April, Architektur Galerie Berlin, Berlin AllesWirdGut: Weg schauen, Exhibition more   more Lectures, Exhibitions, Events Updated Profiles   Architects Fernando Vazquez Studio, Marina Del Rey Landscape Architects Rotzler Krebs Partner Landschaftsarchitekten, Winterthur   Architects Zephyr Architects, Beijing Architects ennead architects, New York   Interior Designers D'art Design Gruppe, Neuss Architects Hans Hohenfellner, Feldkirch   Jobs W3-Professur für Raumgestaltung Akademie der Bildenden Künste, München more   Junior Architect Michael Neumann Architecture, New York more   Interior Designer in Mumbai Architecture BRIO, Mumbai more   Interior Design / Interior Architecture Lecturers Raffles Education Corporation, Ulaanbaatar (Mongolia) more   Projektierung / Projektleitung Robin Winogrond Landschaftsarchitekten, Zürich more   Architects / Interior Designers Inkmason, Beijing more   Design Outsourcing Partners Alicante Urban Design Consultants, Singapoore more   more Jobs Architecture by Numbers Number of innovative materials to look out for this year: 10 By René Ammann For any kind of feedback, please contact the editor in charge: Sarah Mai.
