The phrase “Some of This, Some of That” perhaps sounds very casual. We are not particularly interested in collage or something random. We drive to design something that is a little bit different but at the same time allows the design to be readable and relatable to a larger audience. The phrase Some of This, Some of That describes two separate concepts that might appear to enhance each other or sometimes conflict with each other. But in all cases, this and that create a dialogue. This can be understandable and clear, and that can be imagined and yet to be worked out.


Kwong Von Glinow Design Office is an award-winning architecture practice based in Chicago founded on the belief that architecture is meant to be enjoyed. The practice builds the thoroughly enjoyable from the slightly familiar. Their work translates forward-looking architectural concepts into playful designs with broad appeal. Taking an optimistic and explorative approach, KVG focuses on creating innovative living environments, places for cultural engagement, urban public space, and contemporary workspaces. The office was founded in 2017 by Lap Chi Kwong and Alison Von Glinow and has delivered projects ranging from single-family homes to multi-family residential buildings, public and cultural spaces, exhibitions, and designed objects.
