Sometimes the most creative aspect of a project is the elegance of the deal that made it possible. That is the case for the Shop at the Contemporary Arts Center (CAC) in New Orleans, a new co-working space, designed by Eskew+Dumez+Ripple (EDR), located inside a museum—a first in the U.S. Occupying the top two floors of the building, the Shop has a decidedly tech-office vibe, with a variety of workspaces including private offices, a communal lobby that feels (and acts) like one in a boutique hotel, and a young, creative demographic. For the CAC, it’s a deal that was many years in the making.
