These amazing photos by Michael Steingard are of The Creative Space, a co-operative work environment for creatives located in downtown Barrie, Ontario. The Studio has recently moved up the stairs into a 2400 square foot space and has welcomed a host of new businesses and collaborative opportunities. Chad Ballantyne, owner of Rhubarb Media never gave up on the idea and has since brought it into fruition. The Creative Space is the start of a larger artistic community he is trying to spearhead in the city of Barrie to improve arts and culture in the community. THAIN came to Rhubarb Media before it had become The Creative Space. Chad was renting desk space in his studio at the time and had only a few tenants, he started to build and they came. It is really amazing to be part of a noveau way of thinking that is sparking in Cities around the world. THAIN is proud to be part of such a forward way of thinking and plans on being part of the Creative Space for some time to come.
