Located in New York’s East Village, ANGEL’S PULSE is a space inspired by the “ballroom house “. The house where the so-called New York ‘Voguers’ perform and compete against each other and push the eccentric culture to the next level of seen and be seen.

The program explores the concept of display and ‘stage’ throughout the three floors / three different experience. A space in which body and architecture stand in close conversation. Together stir a dialogue that fosters movement, form and tactile experiences. A space in which body and architecture stand in close conversation. Together stir a dialogue that fosters movement, form and tactile experiences. Designed as a performative space with rather neutral functional backdrops, providing secondary layers of story elements that contagiously transmit and build up the story of the cultural essence that is being lived in the space. Each of them capturing a different vision of emotional state,

purpose and accessibility during a specific time in the day. The Voguer’s demand, for a space, or a “house” with a catwalk, combined with my personal interest in exploring staged experiences, makes me tackle the site (154 Stanton Street), as an ‘enclosed’ canvas-like performance space, that offers 3 floors, with 3 dif-ferent types of stages. Three different spatial expe-riences. A space kept muted, modular and flexible in time. Inspired by voguers, with a potential to be of further value for other sets of performances too.
