The main room was adorned in dimly lit lightbulbs. The general aesthetic of of the whole place was a well blended mixture of rustic and modern architecture. You can see by the interesting choice of lighting and surrounding mixture of chains and metal piping that the whole feel of the interior is complex yet cohesive.
While there at the Krog Street Market, I stumbled upon a chocolate store that made their own batch in the building. The chocolate was artisanal and definetly reflected the type of small business mentality that the whole Market had. There was no big name companies there besides Jeni’s Icecream which is still an artisanal ice cream shop that has roots in Atlanta. This chocolate stood out to me since it was made in Inman Park and a product of the modern tone of the city.
Like stated before, Inman Park has a very contrasting feel to it. With one side of the picture being rustic and urban the other side shows a more modern and suburban feel to it. Many buildings surrounding the area show this modern appeal to it while also being surrounded by street art and grit. The two different sides don’t seem to clash at all but mesh together to build a cohesive mood to the town.
This photo is showing the no parking signs and how most of the residents purposefully ignore the signs and still park as they please. This is another indicator of how accessible Inman Park is. People park where they please and even the law enforcement in the town don’t take the towing policy to heart making it seem like the whole town is in cohesion about accessibility. This parking structure made it very easy for me to maneuver around town without having to worry about where to park or how much I had to pay for parking since parking around town was all free and easy to find.
This graffiti wall shows the three aspects of Inman Park all in one photo:art, city grit, and nature. All three components of Inman Park are shown harmoniously on this street with the art of the Koi fish being predominantly shown through. Throughout Inman Park, you’ll see purposeful art being splattered across many residential and commercial buildings adding to the rustic and modern feel to the city.
Krog Street Market shows a great variety of vendors and sellers that all stem from the same ‘intown’ culture their website conveys. Every inch of the decor stems from rustic wood to urban metal and uses both themes to mesh together in a cohesive modern feel. Though it is labeled as a Market, I saw no fresh produce or goods being sold besides the local butcher in the building. Krog Street Market perfectly conveys the type of feel that Inman Park has with the purposeful graffiti and the modern architecture.
