Rising Green by Freehaus and JA Projects transforms an unused retail unit into a thriving, colourful youth hub for a north London community
Take an empty retail unit on the high street of Wood Green and most wouldn’t think to transform it into a youth hub.
Both inviting and sheltering, the frontage boasts the youth hub’s logo in a softly backlit tangerine and violet, the latter colour clouding the bottom half of the glass shopfront as a gradation. People stop to examine the easels on display holding architectural illustrations of the space, placeholders for posters promoting future events and exhibitions.
At the entryway, a white, ruffled polycarbonate sheet offers translucency in the intermediary space while a striking spring green bench hints toward the vibrancy of the hub’s colour scheme. The interior of the building is unrecognisable as a retail unit – the ceiling is stripped to a bare waffle concrete slab soffit, and conduits and piping are left exposed. There are plans for local artists to make their mark on the exposed brick walls washed in white.
