This is another loft space, but with a different vibe. The owners of this loft call it \u201cSoHo in Chicago,\u201d which captures the offbeat, creative feel of this venue<\/a>.

She studied sociology at Smith College, focusing on the relationship between the climate crisis and migration. Nina is also passionate about architecture and interior design, so she\u2019s thrilled to be able to research and write about beautiful Peerspaces in cities all around the world. When she\u2019s not writing or editing, Nina spends most of her time watching indie horror movies, falling down obscure Wikipedia rabbit holes, or training her cat to walk on a leash.","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.gunthersegal.com","https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/ninagunthersegal"],"url":"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/author\/nina-gunther-segal\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10997","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/27"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10997"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10997\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":123439,"href":"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10997\/revisions\/123439"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/85148"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10997"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10997"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10997"},{"taxonomy":"cohort","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cohorts?post=10997"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
