Project Overview: In the heart of the Block stands a 6,000-square-foot renovation of the historic Club Del Cardo, we transformed an Asheville landmark into an immersive, community-centered arts hub. LEAF Global Arts boasts dynamic performance spaces, artist exhibition areas, community meeting rooms, and administrative offices for their nonprofit mission. By integrating culturally rich exhibits, flexible meeting spaces, and impactful signage, the space was designed to inspire both locals and visitors alike. (2018-2020)

Special “Co” Features:

• Community-led engagement processes that shaped each design phase

• A youth-led CNC design/build project that brought hands-on experience to local students

• Unique, handcrafted signage and exhibit displays celebrating local artistry
