EDENS' Emalia Tamanikwa and Jules Hislop teamed up recently to talk about the power of inclusive design with our friends at NINE dot ARTS | Art Consulting and Creative Placemaking. How does placemaking go from status quo to creating welcoming spaces that feel like home? Find out here!
As the owner, developer, and steward of a nationally leading portfolio of more than 100 open-air retail and mixed-use shopping centers in high-growth markets coast to coast, EDENS designs places that achieve 3.5 trips per week and 5 hours of dwell time, reaching over 15 million people daily. In our latest #podcast episode, EDENS developers Emalia Tamanikwa and Jules Hislop describe some of the innovative strategies behind such success, including how they use experiential design practices to help people become more present, connect meaningfully with others, and recognize they’re part of something bigger than themselves. Tune in to learn about high-impact projects such as Lulah Hills in North DeKalb County, Atlanta, and the Duke District in D.C. – which includes significant integration with the reputable Howard University and other local organizations.
