Here East @ LDA Design
The Here East landscape by LDA Design responds to the site's monumental architecture and east London’s industrial aesthetic to create a flexible, human-scale and sociable canvas.
The landscape challenge for Here East was to bring together the monumental, repurposed Games architecture and create a place that felt comfortable and human scale. LDA Design devised a series of external ‘rooms’ to create that important sense of intimacy. A successful working landscape will respect what has gone before and the design reflects the site’s post-industrial heritage and Hackney Wick’s entrepreneurial spirit, with yard spaces for artists and makers, generous areas for pop-ups, bold planting and concrete-slab benches.
