Saeed Research Studio’s first project in Lahore is THP -The Happieee Place. It is an artist-run space which understands the need and the urgency of bringing people together to create and build a community around learning new ways of seeing and making. THP is an apolitical – social learning space for adults and kids.
It aims to put art and design in conversation with medicine, history, engineering, robotics, IT, law, social sciences, anthropology, culinary arts and more to develop a cross-cutting and honest sensibility towards our methods of thinking, creating and exhibiting.
THP is designed to inspire a childlike playfulness and curiosity which is the source of the most creative and innovative ideas. To facilitate The Happieee Place’s vision, we have four spaces,
- ArtLab
- Bindery
- Palate
- BookYard
We want artists, technologists, lawyers, doctors, and people from diverse professions to work together to have a dialogue about reality, data visualization and analysis, computer vision, interactive performance, computer neural networks, multichannel video/sound, and so much more.
This interdisciplinary dialogue leading to thought provocation and/or creation of new works of art, products, designs, books, and other solutions guide all of THP’s internal workshops, events and residency programs.
Note: The Happieee Place is a smoke-free premise (indoors and outdoors).
