VSBA designed this art installation at the Cumberland Mall in South Jersey in conjunction with local historical, planning, and tourism groups. Riffing on the idea of street art, we shaped the display to be social, informational, playful, and astonishing within its mall setting.

VSBA worked with Brown U. to explore a range of social and community facilities for dining, fitness, study, meeting, gathering, and performing. One task was to help identify what type of campus center or precinct makes sense for Brown.

Wellesley asked VSBA to synthesize 5 separate precinct studies. We aligned goals with projected budgets & explored sustainability, accessibility, and preservation. Our study helped guide decision-making & created a flexible framework to guide campus development for 12-15 years!
