Designed and documented as part of the Gensler Chicago team, Frank Gibase’s personal experience while at Gensler.

Description: Occupying an entire floor of Chicago’s Iconic Willis (Sears) Tower, the United Hub serves as an amenity space and focal touchpoint for all United employees within their Chicago headquarters. Each of the 9 bundled tubes of the base-building tower are programmed differently, creating a series of rooms for employees to enjoy - whether that be to work, relax, collaborate, or simply have lunch with coworkers.
