Sidebars_aboutproj
Through the documentation of isolation and boundaries within our four chosen locations in Detroit, it became evident that there is a need for the creation of positive spaces within these environments. The installation consists of an outdoor space made entirely of objects found in Detroit, providing seating and a social atmosphere.

Sidebars_challenge

Our goal is to challenge established boundaries and confront isolation by creating a positive environment where people can gather.

 
Sidebars_solution

With so much negative signage in and around the areas we visited, we chose affirmative words to invite people into the environment and serve as conversational pieces.
