Design Under Sky on Finalist Team for Roger Williams Park Gateway
Design Under Sky as part of the team with inForm Studio (designers of PVD Pedestrian Bridge) have been announced as one of five finalists for the Roger Williams Park Gateway RFQ. Our proposal, which looks to make a neighborhood connection back to the vibrant and colorful area of Broad St., also includes a demonstrative urban garden that transforms from “urban to wild”.
The Providence Planning department is looking for public feedback. View ours and the other proposals here.

The Shack Opens in Jewelry District Providence
“THE SHACK” is a new seafood shack/biergarten in the heart of former I-195 land, and adjacent to the Wexford Innovation Center under construction. A small transportable "shack" will be set in a garden of three distinct zones, diminishing in constructed materiality and recalling the coastal context of the project .
The project was designed in close collaboration with the Dune Brothers (the restaurant operators) Stay Silent PVD (Event Planners), JP Murton (Developing Partner), Fuss and O'neil Engineers, and the I-195 District Commission. More about the project here.
