	Repeat Writings on Architecture - Helmut Jahn returns to IIT
		Jahn is back, not just in Chicago, but at the Bronzeville campus of IIT where he had began his career as a graduate student 37 years ago, and where he's just unveiled State Street Village, his new take on the idea of a college dorm.
		Jahn's entry most directly evoked the legacy of Mies van der Rohe in a design that was transparent, spacious, and bright, but the prize went to Koolhaas, now the newest wunderkind on the block.
		That may be Jahn the politician talking, learning to hold his tongue rather than ruffle the feathers of developers who, though they've shunned him in the past, might still be converted into a future client.

	The Renaissance Society at the University of Chicago: Helmut Jahn, Drawings
		For Jahn, however, the rate of technological advances in materials and their application is outpacing the imagination.
		Whereas Jahn's sky-scrapers and his open, light-filled atriums, represent the imagination on a metaphorical level, it is in his drawings that an extremely restless and inquisitive imagination becomes visible.
		But unlike others of his generation for whom drawing is an extension of theory, Jahn's drawing is fueled through building and his is a practical imagination, one that prey's on a particular project's constraints.
