Commissioned by LPG and RIBA London, the folly forms part of London Festival of Architecture's 'Playful City' events and the London Pleasure Gardens. As part of the pleasure gardens experience, the folly (one of six commissioned) will form a small part of a £1.2 Billion regeneration project for Newham Council.
The folly is a place to sit, a place to shelter from the wind and rain, a meeting place, something to climb on and object of play.
What we'll deliver:
Why it's a great idea:
