Info

For 6 months the project explored local identity, gentrification and the role of the citizens in Deptford, South East London.

Tradeptford provided a local platform hosting events and debates. It aimed for a new typology of market forum which would turn the artist/architect into a lever for positive social change. Through the direct participation in each forum, local residents worked together with local artists and designers to unpick the impact of gentrification in Deptford.

The identity designed by London based designer Ross Bennett is based on Enzo Mari's table structures which formed the foundation and surface for the workshop lunches and debates, using a custom MF Bespoke.
