A Space to Collaborate

‘A Space to Collaborate’ is an urban garden which is located adjacent to the home of a maker. The garden is a creative sanctuary which is focussed on its inhabitants and the interaction that is fostered through collaboration.

The built structure represents home and the authentic connections and personal bonds that we develop. Seating areas offer a relaxing social space where experiences can be shared and ideas explored.
