Jennifer Curtis, Fresh Landscape Design - Gold Award
Rooftop Garden - Design Brief:
As a teaching/demonstration space, this garden needed to incorporate and demonstrate as many sustainable garden technologies relevant to people living in the city as possible. Rather than being a set display piece, it needed to have the capacity for students and visitors to gain practical experience with growing vegetables, herbs, fruit and mushrooms as well as building soil fertility, conserving water and minimising waste. The space also needed to accommodate large-scale social events such as gallery openings, public talks and film screenings.
