East Village Garden

East Village Garden

• Sponsored by

  Delancey

• Designed by Balston Agius Ltd (Michael Balston & Marie-Louise Agius)
• Built by Willerby Landscapes Ltd

The garden picks up the ‘designed for living’ theme of the East Village, the Olympic legacy.
 
Referencing the local history of nurseries and horticulture, it sets strong architecture against a rich horticultural palette, including less commonly exhibited shrubs and herbaceous plants. Curving lines and leaf forms respond to elements of the Olympic Park and local references are picked up in the boundary, structures and planting. The balcony-like chevrons overlooking the garden evoke the ‘designed for living’ concept of the village, with views onto green space.
