ARCHITECTS

The tailor and clothes maker were identified as potential clients, in conjunction with the small shop owner. Their current environment limits them by means of low economic potential and opportunities, and a low social cohesiveness. The lack of potential to invest results in a difficulty to safeguard personal investment which further perpetuates problems on site.

​

The intention is to encourage and begin to define a stable environment where self-establishment and self- sufficiency can occur, while catering for the existing networks related to clothing industry in Marabastad.

​

The intervention acts as a catalyst for local industry, which feeds back into the existing networks rather than replace them.
