Since 2021, we have longingly looked at the faded Art Deco beauty of the warehouse at 16-18 Railway Place - sitting forlornly amidst a changing landscape of new architecture, the level crossing removal project, and the regeneration of natural spaces where the railway once cut through this urban corridor.
The dream never faltered - we wanted to fill this space with people gathering for life’s most important rites of passage - weddings and send offs, occasions to celebrate, and times to commiserate.
We imagined locals holding art exhibitions, or life drawing classes, hosting community meetings and this grand old space being a place of assembly in an increasingly fractured world.
The Vision
Collaboration
We’re well aware that surrounding our new space is a medium-high density residential area, and we have factored this into every one of our plans - our intention is to run this space predominantly in the day-time, and we’ve included mindful design to minimise any disruption to our neighbours.
We’ve planted a living garden that moves with the seasons, a pleasing array of green space,
We’re also keen to hear from our neighbours about their ideas or concerns, and to create a spirit of collaboration, communication and just neighbourly good spirit and vibes!
Floorplan
Telephone of the Wind
We’re have also installed a telephone of the wind - part art installation, part offering to the grieving, based on this world-wide phenomenon that began in Japan.
