    Nike Garden, Shoreditch, London (designed by Kate Gould Garden Design)

    The clients requested 'stadium style' seating for this commercial 'community orientated' pop up shop garden space in Shoreditch, London. The space is used as a meeting, viewing and gallery space.

    The existing courtyard space had a very uneven floor but this element had to be worked with due to the lease constrains affecting the temporary nature of the garden. In fact all structures in the garden are essentially 'free-standing' and not attached to walls. The floor was finished with a non-slip exterior pedestrian paint.

    A simple, smart and functional seating area was created with ipe hardwood deck boards cleverly overcoming the uneven floor. Two side planting beds and a corner planter were created using the same deck boards and filled with dramatic, lush planting. A beautiful green wall structure was planted up complete with internal irrigation system and timer, providing additional planting interest in the urban courtyard space.

    Stainless steel wires cleverly criss-cross the courtyard above head height reflecting the form of the sculpture and mural artwork within the space. The red coloured wall artwork was created by artist/sculptor Benedict Radcliffe, along with the very funky over-sized trainer sculpture.
