Culture Index exists to catalog cultural institutions online, and highlight the best practices that inspire us.
Launching with a focus on museums and building from there, we are a resource for both research and discovery. Browse information about online communications, and discover ideas with examples of what’s possible for cultural institutions in the digital space.
As a community project facilitated by Base, we invite you to use and contribute to this growing resource.
YDP
YDP is a London-based project space for Asian and Asian diasporic contemporary art. Born as a personal project of arts philanthropist Yan Du, YDP is part of her overarching vision to facilitate transcultural dialogues.
Emerging from Asian backgrounds and drawing upon a multitude of diasporic experiences, YDP amplifies artists’ voices and responds to their needs through a programme of exhibitions, residencies and artist-led experiments.

Located in a Grade I Listed eighteenth-century townhouse, YDP’s home was carefully conceptualised as a ‘suitcase project’ that reflects the diasporic experience of nomadic home-making. The redesign was developed collaboratively with BEAU Architects, a Hong Kong-based studio. Modular and temporary in its structure, this redesign introduces flexibility and adaptability into the original Georgian architecture of the building while honouring the historical heritage of Bedford Square.
