INDUS
FDA map of food deserts in America.
Despite our notoriety as a 1st world country, access to food in America is a massive problem prompting critical change and experiment. With a food system built upon a petroleum based infrastructure and the prevalence of processed edible food like substances the worlds bread basket is on a precipice facing disaster.

- MAKING A CASE FOR DETROIT At one time, Detroit was the center of American innovation, and a beacon of industrial might. Now, the city suffers from severe ex-urbanification and visual abandonment.
With the dilution of city services and the gradual shift away from society, a new culture has been moving in to the abandoned Detroit bringing many unique ideas that would not survive in a staunch, stabilized society. INDUS

- Who we serve -
INDUS
The Initiative itself is an entity built to serve the urban dwellers of Detroit. Above that it is an experiment partnered with universities to explore radical shifts in agricultural sciences, specifically Building Integrated Agriculture. The restaurant is built to become a public face to the project. It is a reason. It is an excuse. The Indus Restaurant is built to be a curious space designed to attract a crowd that would otherwise be indifferent to the core mission of the Initiative.
Public, NY - AvroKO
INDUS
Public in NYC is a firm-owned and designed project by AvroKO. The existing shell of the building was at one time a textile warehouse. The firm tried to preserve the zeitgeist of the site by playing up industrial fixtures and leaving many existing materials exposed.
