Garden of the giants - situated near EuroLille station. The garden was pointed out to us due to it being fairly new and for us to take note of the well designed details. The planting was still fairly young with some structures still to be covered by climbers etc. And being closed we weren't able to access the inner area.
Detailed railings conveying plant/ stem forms.
The same paving material but with different stippled techniques applied. Proved effective underfoot.
Cor-ten steel used throughout the scheme, for screening and low retainers.
Planting shows strong verticality through grasses and bamboos which worked well with the structure and height of the surrounding commercial buildings.
Small details are important - chamfered edges to protect ones shins.
