Urban Alley Infill, this project looks to draw attention to the spaces “in between”- allies in Indianapolis that currently either have a utilitarian function (delivering to stores in the area) or a social one; (people hanging out in them near a bar or restaurant).

The project looks to make these spaces welcoming and attractive to encourage people to use and visit them. That is in line with Indy’s culture enhancing projects such as; First Friday events, the Cultural Trail, and urban renewal plans.

The project consists of an architectural light fixture that adds light and mood to these in-between areas. It uses parametric design and CNC fabrication techniques allowing it to be built offset and transported in pieces to the location and assembled on site.
Anastasia Andreieva is an accomplished Architectural Projects Editor at Arch2O, bringing a unique blend of linguistic expertise and design enthusiasm to the team. Born and raised in Ukraine, she holds a Master’s degree in Languages from Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv. Her deep passion for architecture and visual storytelling led her to transition from translation and editorial roles into the world of design media. With a keen eye for conceptual clarity and narrative structure, Anastasia curates and presents global architectural projects with precision and flair. She is particularly drawn to parametric and digital design, cultural context, and emerging voices in architecture. When I’m not analyzing the latest architectural trends, you’ll probably find me searching for hidden gems in cityscapes or appreciating the beauty of well-crafted spaces. After all, great design—like great connections—can be found in the most unexpected places. Speaking of connections, because architecture isn’t the only thing that brings people together.
