The Thoughtscape

This think tank is envisioned as a contemplative gathering space for Columbia World Projects, an institutional organization dedicated to addressing issues in humanity and social sciences. The site, once an abandoned IBM factory that served as an industrial hub for Kingston, is reimagined as a fusion of nature, art, and architecture. This transformation creates a quiet, immersive environment designed for both academic scholars and public visitors. As people move through the site, shifting landscapes and spatial compositions evoke a range of contemplations and reflections.
