Inspired by the geometry of the passing moves in a game of football, This Is Anfield is an abstract expression of the interaction between the players and supporters of Liverpool Football Club.
Triangular installations of daisies intersect the pitch to show the progressive sequence of the ball towards goal. Spherical forms of Buxus sempervirens translate into footballs, adding humour and a sense of perspective. Animated grasses and hardy perennials in The Kop capture the dynamics, tension and movement of the crowd.
The contemporary style reflects a modern, family garden with flexible space for an energetic and active lifestyle.
