Pillyr Foundation Projects

Pillyr Organization Pillyr Foundation Projects Atlanta, GA

Atlanta is an incredible city, but it is an auto-centric city designed in the 20th century. The city needs more urbanism and fast. Our group of 5 architects came together to found Atlanta’s first non-profit based around tactical urbanism to advance the built environment of our communities. Based around 5 key principles to nurture vibrant public space: culture & art, access, nature, safety, & activity, we strive to better our streets. Below is our first project that took pallets and created a bike bar out of them to encourage public spaces.

As Pillyr grew and got incorporated, we finished numerous projects in collaboration with city governments, art communities, and non-profits. Our largest project to date was funded by a grant received from the city of Atlanta that worked with the department of planning’s volunteers and with Atlanta’s art murals non-profit, Living Walls, to create a designed playscape for the children of a large Latinx mobile home community. We were given the chance to design the playground complete with a play structure, swings, bike racks and murals.
