We’re really proud to be able to highlight some of the work we’ve done with the folks at Crosstown Arts in Memphis as they head towards the extraordinary task of matching 1.5 million sq. ft of space to partners and tenants. Developing an approach for the old Sear’s distribution center is incredibly exciting and complex at the same time. Our Spatial Affairs Crosstown Concept Study was commissioned as an ideas project to help forge relationships with potential partners and to formulate possibilities for the ongoing project. The work on Sears completes our trilogy of Memphis investigations for now and you can see them in more detail on the following pages. Watch this space as we are starting to explore possibilities for our first Spatial Affairs book, placing the three projects together.
Sears Concept Study - a Micro-City
Study for the William Eggleston Museum
Crosstown Masterplan - an approach to the neighborhood of both building studies creating connections between the two
We’ve really enjoyed Memphis and hope to be back again before long.
Otherwise, life has been changing for our team. We are now developing links in Los Angeles and I have started teaching at Woodbury University, with great up and coming undergraduate and graduate programs. We still have two bases in Virginia (Richmond and Charlottesville) so the east coast is covered, which is good as the Metropolitan Museum of Art Plaza project is getting ready to start up later this year.
Meanwhile in London, we’re developing the Bouverie Mews house to the next stage since the project received planning permission in May.
