Design for Democracy
The events of September 11, 2001 have highlighted the importance of having good emergency and evacuation systems as part of Homeland Security. According to a RAND report, “Security and Safety in Los Angeles High Rise Buildings after 9/11,” ninety-nine percent of the World Trade Center occupants below the impact floors were able to safely evacuate the building (Archibald et.al. 2002).
This project was produced in 2007 at UIC for Design for Democracy under the direction of Elizabeth Tunstal and Marcia Lausen
