Who is Roger Wade of Boxpark?
This is in the nature of a d-i-y project, typical of New Zealanders.
Perhaps some of you in the UK know of Boxpark. Boxpark director Roger Wade seems peeved that a temporary mall has been built in Christchurch NZ after some 6000 earthquakes have demolished much of the city.. The mall has been built out of shipping containers. Does Boxpark want money for this rather obvious idea? Is Boxpark subject to earthquakes? I think not. Can somebody please tell Roger Wade to pull his head in? http://www.newstalkzb.co.nz/newsdeta...storyid=207705 The director of a British company taking legal action against Christchurch's City Mall project wants an apology. The Restart project is being accused of copying a pop-up mall in London. Boxpark director Roger Wade says members of the Restart team visited the Shoreditch mall in April to inspire ideas. He says he wants to stress they aren't doing this for financial gain. "We just want the Restart initiative and the Government who's backing the Restart initiative to recognise, as already has been recognised in emails that we've recived from them, that this idea to create a pop-up mall from chipping containers came from Boxpark." Mr Wade says if this happened, he would be happy to sit down with Restart organisers and talk it through. |
