Conceptualised by Tom Dixon's Design Research Studio, and in collaboration with expert landscape gardeners Alys Fowler and Thomas Hoblyn, their first outdoor project at Greenwich Peninsula is unveiled - inspired by the areas industrial and nautical past.
Visitors to the gardens will experience a wild garden carefully cultivated to adapt to the changing seasons. In addition to the open green spaces, an amphitheatre, inspired by the geometry of the Giant's Causeway will host a diverse calendar of events and a year-round programme for theatre, music, cinema and performance.
Linking to Stevie Parle's new restaurant on the Peninsula, Craft London, the Market Garden will supply fresh and seasonal produce for the kitchens as well as space for Parle and his team to grow and experiment with often rare or hard to find ingredients in close vicinity. Market stalls and seating will be positioned during the day and night.
Naturists, garden gnomes, wild things
