It takes over ‘Halle B’, a 1550 m² area inside a 20th century warehouse renovated by French architect Patrick Bouchain in 2004, and previously used for exhibitions and events. The institution’s brief was simple: to bring together different audiences and create a space that’s inclusive.⁠ ⁠ ‘Skateboarding is a unique art form on its own,’ says Ilori. ‘It’s performative: there’s an audience, you’re doing tricks. So there is that element of display and flamboyancy - it’s quite a big thing to watch.’ The designer learned from a team of professional skateboarders, working closely with them for guidance throughout the process, which often made him reconsider his design choices.⁠ ⁠ ‘I wanted to create a space that is joyful and inclusive, and that allows room for stories to be told and created. That’s why I use colour, to create memories,’ he continues. For the designer, it was important to create a space that would become a pillar of the community, a safe space for local children: ‘skateboarding is not only about skating, but it’s also about being part of a community, it’s also being part of a family,’ he says.⁠ ⁠ See more of the space via the link in bio.⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ #YinkaIlori #Skatepark #Roubaix #Lille #Design #WallpaperMagazine⁠」8月25日 18時01分
