Urban Garden Follies 01

London Festival of Architecture 2010


The ‘Urban Garden Follies’ were a series of self-initiated public space installations for the London Festival of Architecture (2010-2013) and Clerkenwell Design Week (2019). The project identified different types of overlooked spaces in London and used key concepts of sustainability as guiding principles for the temporary interventions. The main focus of the ‘Urban Garden Follies’ were questions around sustainability of place, and sustainability through practice.
