Wavepool Contemporary Art Center is a socially engaged art center that acts as a conduit for community change through artist opportunities and support.

Wavepool provides a structure where contemporary art and artists can be integral contributors to the success of the city by helping build relationships and knowledge around complex issues, centering the insights and experiences of those affected.

The non-profit works towards helping artists and communities remake the world together.

While standing on-site, we recognized the need for a resource center that could highlight the area’s potential for progression.

Wavepool, a contemporary art fulfillment center, does more than we ever could have imagined. Our design relieves their tension and offers more service space while highlighting individuals’ creative pursuits.

The new center combines a variety of programs, all fitting within the site footprint, feeding off the needs the Wavepool employees addressed. In the beginning conceptual stages, we knew to arrange the plan to be welcoming, open to the community, and introduce the arts scene to the public. The brief gave us the option to keep the existing buildings on site or demolish. Our group decided to incorporate the existing buildings into our design due to the passion the employees had towards the building and its integrated community history.

Schematic design started by placing our desired spatial arrangements on site. Through this, we found the words gather, learn, display, and produce helped to guide the layout of spaces. After we found which will go where, we moved forward in designing each space to support the program.

From the start, we knew that our main program in the building would be a gallery exhibition space along with additional support programs througout the building.

The exterior space serves as the outdoor sculpture garden, the first taste of art you experience when approaching the site. We knew very early on that we wanted the courtyard space to be an integrated part of the project due to the community’s desire for outdoor space.
