PEOPLE FOR URBAN PROGRESS is bringing you a new DESIGN SERIES FOCUSING
ON QUALITY, CONVERSATION, and innovation. Join us for our first
installment — a brown bag lunch featuring our two inaugural City
State Residents, Oliver Blank and Natasha Jimenez. Oliver and Natasha
have been working at Central State Village developing and DESIGNING
THE RESIDENCY’s identity and purpose. Come listen, see, and share in
their design process and how it's been shaping City State.
CITY STATE is a new residency currently housed at Central State
Mansion in the heart of INDIANAPOLIS' new DESIGN HUB, Central State
Village. The residency will invite practitioners from fields of
civically and socially engaged DESIGN, arts, and cultural disciplines
to develop projects that ask new questions, challenge assumptions, and
propose creative solutions through exploration and CONVERSATION.
Examining the unique and universal challenges and opportunities of our
city, the residency hopes to stimulate our collective imagination
towards a more just, more resilient, and a more wildly generous
creative citizenry. Learn more about City State here

OLIVER BLANK and NATASHA JIMENEZ have worked with with UNICEF, UNHCR,
ThoughtWorks, Google, and Lego amongst others, and have since founded
Outside, a new kind of DESIGN AGENCY. Outside uses human-centered
design practices to reduce suffering and increase peace, health, and
well-being. Learn more about Outside here.
