YR 2021-2022

SEED is the conception of world renowned artist Christophe Roberts. Known for his transformative use of materials, Christophe sees SEED as a safe space for Art and Community Transformation in Bedford-Stuyvesant Brooklyn, a New York Community currently undergoing speedy gentrification at the time of construction. The Coffee Shop and adjoining Retail Store combine world class brands with art and clothing by BIPOC artists and designers. Paragon worked with SEED to bring their vision of an Urban Jungle, teeming with plants, but rooted in Brooklyn’s unique “Street Style”, to life while managing technical challenges and code compliance.
