The Loom : Mixed Use Riverfront Urban Development

The project is conceived with aspirations to rethink the solitary development and proffer a quilting of history, memory, purposes, and civic beauty. The Loom reconstitutes the social material of its urban context and it ventures to provide a sympathetic construction. Through its effluent civic programming, the design provokes a livelihood and seeks to gather what is absent from the place-culture of the cityscape. Furthermore, The Loom formulates a firmness, functionality, and quiet beauty befitting Detroit’s metropolitan fabric, its city identity, and more importantly, its fluvial heritage.
