Birmingham, UK | Boxpark | 2025 |
Boxpark Birmingham is a fresh interpretation in the lineage of BDP’s design of a sequence projects developed in collaboration with Boxpark; at Croydon, Wembley, Liverpool, and now in Digbeth.
Formed within the beating heart of the industrial revolution, this hive of industriousness has a rich history which is now transforming at pace.
Tanneries and blacksmiths have now given way to an exciting new breed of industrious creative industries finding a home in this stimulating emerging part of the city. This project will take residence within the cavernous spaces beneath a vast brick railway viaduct a short walk from the Bullring and Grand Central. Excitingly, this new context creates the opportunity for creative reinvention of what makes Boxpark such a successful concept, capturing the essence of the unique multifunctional events space accommodating a multitude of independent traders. Assembled using recycled shipping containers, this project explores a completely new environment, celebrating the cathedral-like character of the found spaces beneath the railway line.
Boxpark Birmingham will create a transformational new destination within the Digbeth community, a rich creative quarter and one of the most distinctive parts of Birmingham’s city core, named ‘the coolest neighborhood in Britain’ by the Sunday Times.
