In our latest blog series, Troy Jacoby, shares his design 'take-aways' from iconic films—Forest Gump, Pulp Fiction, Selena and more!

Check it out here: https://jla-ap.com/informed-design-lessons-learned-in-design-and-film/

‘Informed Design’ is a blog series brought to you by JLA’s design team. Architecture for living environments is increasingly trending toward blending lifestyle, culture, and commerce into one seamless experience. This series will look to iconic films for references and explanations of why they resonate so deeply, and how JLA’s current work is incorporating these insights.

Audubon Nature Center sits along Lake Michigan, just north of Milwaukee, and is comprised of forests, prairies, and wetlands. The Nature Center offers hiking, birding, and environmental education year round.

Since 1994, Aldo Leopold Nature Center has been providing opportunities for the community to connect with nature—their early childhood and youth programs engage and educate students, and their trails are open to the public year round.

Our team visited recently to help dig posts for a new natural music area, and apply bird glass to the building. They also answered a lot of questions from curious young minds, wondering, "what are you doing?"
