SOUTH SIDE Living + Maker Spaces

Located at 2450 Roosevelt Ave in San Antonio, TX, this single-story gallery space offers an industrial-chic environment purpose-built for contemporary art exhibition. The layout follows an L-shaped floor plan, providing two distinct gallery wings that connect through a central junction, creating a natural flow for visitors exploring the exhibitions. The space is defined by its raw, industrial aesthetic. Polished and weathered concrete floors run throughout, complemented by exposed ceilings featuring aged structural elements, visible ductwork, track lighting, and original concrete columns. The contrast between the pristine white display walls and the unfinished ceiling gives the gallery a compelling, edgy character well-suited to its bold artwork. The main gallery wing is generously proportioned, offering extensive wall space capable of accommodating large-scale paintings, mixed-media installations, and oversized textile works. Vibrant street-art-inspired murals and figurative works fill the walls, creating an immersive visual experience. Track and pendant lighting highlight individual pieces throughout. A smaller connecting area near the entrance features glass-paneled partitions and a casual seating arrangement, providing a welcoming reception space. Built-in cabinetry with counter space along one wall offers practical utility for gallery operations. Additional rooms accessible via white-painted doors along the corridor provide supplementary spaces for storage or private use.
