Sitting by the dock of the bay
This tight and challenging works program delivered the landscape infrastructure in front of the Convesso building at Docklands. We needed to work over the suspended wharf structure with load limitations as well as under the wharf for service installations.
The raised garden and turf beds gave office workers, tourists and residents somewhere to sit and watch the ships go by. The design included cast in-situ and pre cast concrete and custom designed timber furniture.
The challenge was to complete this project while the building was under construction and co-ordinating detailed pedestrian access to the rest of the Docklands infrastructure.
