Green Sky Gardens: The Ascent & Consequences of High Rise Green Space
Bouygues UK
Manhattan Loft Gallery, 65 Hopton Street, Bankside, London, SE1 9JL
Join us for a lively discussion and debate as we, along with some of our partners from the world of architecture, discuss the relative merits and challenges in designing and delivering green spaces on high rise residential developments (or sky gardens, as they are more commonly referred to). Using two of our current flagship UK projects as well as international examples as case studies, we will be asking architects and developers for their views on what they want when they design or specify high rise green spaces on their projects. And we will be asking designers and construction professionals about their experience on the difficulties of building and maintaining sky gardens. Lastly, we will debate collectively on whether sky gardens really are the answer; or whether there are better ways that we can deliver, or retain, green spaces through design. If you can't make the event in person, you can follow the conversation on Twitter @bouyguesuk and feel free to join in the discussion online.
