emersion DESIGN created the concept design for the new Clifton Cultural Arts Center (CCAC). The CCAC is currently located at 2728 Short Vine Street and is looking to move to a new building, located at 3412 Clifton Avenue. The CCAC primarily serves the Uptown area and nearby communities of Northside and Camp Washington.
The CCAC sought a contemporary expression of their community focus with an appropriate response to the urban setting of the Ludlow Business District, nearby apartment buildings, and the adjacent historic Clifton United Methodist Church. The building clearly announces CCAC’s presence in the neighborhood in a respectful and compatible manner.
CCAC desires to construct the building in a sustainable manner and will be seeking LEED Gold Certification upon construction.
