Our team at WE-DESIGNS™ @we_designs_llc is working hard during the pandemic on reworking several of our past projects to engage in post-COVID-19 strategies and design opportunities. Care for Hudson Square is a recovery initiative aimed at reinvigorating the Hudson Square @hudsonsquarenyc neighborhood. As a fellow at Urban Design Forum @urbandesignforum since 2018, our team was invited as one of the small and M/WBE (Minority and Women Business Enterprise) design firms to submit proposals for an interactive street installation that would help reactivate the public realm. To highlight the historic former “Printing District” that has formalized the current version of Hudson Square as a creative hub, our team at WE-DESIGNS proposed to use high-impact colors, patterns, and strategies to bring attention to the site. The design elements and colors of the landscape will be playfully chosen to emphasize food and colors. From the selected modular seating and potters, to the variety of organic plants, to the temporarily painted walkable pathways, to the culturally diverse curated food trucks, to the human “flex area” and dog playground, our proposal is to offer a multi-sensorial experience, used to attract the broader public. #architecture #publicart #urbanplanning #socialdistancing #publicengagement #publicspace #modular #design #publicseating @dezeen @designboom (at Hudson Square Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/CLVajH5hPnu/?igshid=1k602wua8ss5z
