Streetscene

Streetscene, designed by Laura Bradley (SLIC), “will be the focal point of the Cityscape exhibition, and will demonstrate the key elements of a successful and well maintained/managed, functioning urban place which is accessible, inclusive, safe, secure and stimulating. Incorporating hard & soft landscaping, street furniture, signage, lighting and public art, the feature will epitomise ‘Urban Chic’, while supporting sustainable products and innovations.” –Cityscape

Today I was involved in helping to set up Streetscene in preparation for the exhibition. I spent the day painting a polystyrene wall, pointing and planting. Helping to set up the exhibition allowed me to learn about landscape construction and see how contractors use the design details to create the proposed space.
