In 2019, the hospitality establishment 16/16 rented a building at 30 Ajasa Street and reimagined it as a "breathing space"—a place where informal labour could enter and actively participate in lo-tech making: fermentation, radio-making, printing, up-cycling.

Since then, the space has hosted events, workshops, and gatherings that bring artists and the local community together. Residency rooms have served as staff quarters, and DIY architecture has emerged through collective projects.

The story of how 30 Ajasa came to be is one of raw production spirit and a yearning to understand the needs of others. By removing pressure for tangible outputs, the space allows art and craft-making to give rise to impact.
