Two basketball courts

​

Created for Evelyn K. Davis Park, Growth Culture transforms two neighborhood basketball courts into vibrant spaces for play, gathering, and cultural exchange. Drawing upon visual languages from multiple cultural traditions, the work reflects the diversity, shared histories, and continual growth of the surrounding community. Extending beyond the courts through adaptive apparel featuring high-contrast Braille, the project demonstrates how accessibility and thoughtful design can strengthen both public space and everyday life.
