Re-imagine FAQ

I have an idea for a space that is not tagged on the map already, how do I tell you about it?

Drop us an email to [email protected] with all the information you have, or submit your space via our online form here. For those of you who are more creative head to our How To Re-Imagine guide.

The space I’ve found isn’t in Edinburgh, can I submit it to the re-imagine gallery?

Yes! Since the Archifringe Exhibition 2021, we are now looking for spaces to re-imagine across the UK. Our Archifringe 2021 exhibition focused on spaces re-imagine in Edinburgh, however, due to massive interest across the UK we have expanded our reach. Check out our how to page to submit your space to re-imagine.

Some spaces seem to already be occupied?

We wanted to highlight the amount of space in the city centre that is not currently in use. A lot of these photos have been taken during lockdown when spaces were mostly unoccupied or changing ownership. If we have tagged your space, please email us at [email protected].

I want to transform one of these spaces

Yes! We love your enthusiasm! The idea behind this exhibition is to demonstrate the future potential of these spaces and hopefully inspire people to take action in their local areas. We have no current plans to transform any of these spaces in real life. However, we hope to use this exhibition to demonstrate the need for a wider variety of spaces in the city that support the people that live here. We would love it if one of these re-imaginations became a reality, get in touch with us at [email protected].

Why do we need to re-imagine spaces in the city?

The spaces in cities should reflect the lives and on-goings of the people that live there. We believe there is a need for a wider variety of spaces and places in spaces that support a more social and sustainable lifestyle. We want to see more spaces that encourage social interaction and support environmentally friendly choices in our city. We are always keen to discuss the future of spaces, you can find us on facebook, instagram or via email.
