This new 30.5 acre development transformed the west side of Carmel’s Downtown. As the landscape architect, Context created a vision of diverse public/private and active/passive spatial experiences for the residents of this 300-unit luxury community. The courtyards and plazas provide for small and large gatherings, active recreation, quiet reflective spaces, pool and sun deck, fire pits, grilling stations, and event lawns to host yoga sessions among other events. The main courtyard interacts and flows through the building’s architecture and the interior amenity spaces, blurring the lines of the architecture and landscape architecture. A 5-acre civic space and plaza adjacent to the multi-family development provides additional recreational opportunities for the multi-family residents and the citizens of Carmel.

Located in downtown Indianapolis, Artistry has kick-started the redevelopment and revitalization of the Market Street corridor in the newly established Market East District. The vacant two-story concrete building has been transformed into a mixed-use urban community with 258 apartment units and over 68,000 s.f. of commercial space.

As the landscape architect, Context was charged with creating vibrant spaces for the people of this new community in the streetscape design and interior rooftop courtyards. The streetscape sets a precedent for the four other active projects on Market Street in the district. The rooftop courtyards and pool deck provide highly sought-after amenities, including courtyard fountains, a bocce court, putting green, and community vegetable gardens.
