Rejected pitches and unrealized concepts reveal the Chicago design work that never left the studio.

Design Graveyard turns abandoned concepts, scrapped proposals and rejected pitches into a revealing portrait of Chicago's design process. Because the exhibition lasts only two weeks and costs nothing, Wednesday offers a low-risk chance to see the ideas normally hidden behind finished work.

What to expect

Go to 135 South LaSalle Street for an evening exhibition visit beginning at 5:30 PM. Works span architecture, graphics, interiors and exhibition design, with displayed notes explaining what each concept was intended to become.
