TSW was retained by Selig Enterprises to develop a unique greenspace for The Works, a mixed-use project taking shape on Atlanta’s Upper Westside that will include restaurants, retail, office, residences, and public space in a former industrial complex. The Camp honors the spirit of the visionary behind The Works, the late Scott Selig, by creating a captivating tree-covered oasis into a whimsical park de-signed for play, relaxation, reflection, interaction, and entertainment.

To pay homage to the area’s history, TSW salvaged and repurposed industrial materials found onsite and collaborated with local artists and craftsmen. There are tables and seating crafted from felled trees and pathways lined with boulders uncovered during construction. Old pieces of machinery, railroad ties, and bricks have been fashioned into art and pathways. The park includes an entrance sculpture made from vines and branches, gathering spaces, grassy lawns, seating passive recreation areas, and a large hammock for relaxing. The Camp also features a stage that will serve as one of the central gathering spaces for events and programs planned for The Works.
