Brownstone Community Fridge Project
2021
The annex is designed to reinforce mutual aid work through existing community resources such as the Fort Greene Farmers Market, neighborhood businesses, while being grounded in historic architectural identity. The use of donated refrigerators brings full circle the interiority of the community fridge, transposing it even more by bringing it back inside, activated and accentuated by historic millwork profiles. Decorative and functional typologies are intertwined to serve an operation that injects community back into the rows of stoic victorian brownstones.
