Green peace & quiet, living walls in a modern apartment block - Primrose Hill

North-facing terraces, mostly shady.

Our environmentally aware clients decided they wanted living walls to cover the acres of white render, surrounding the terraces of this modern two-floor apartment. Living walls are amazingly effective at absorbing particulates, and cleaning the London air in the vicinity.

We also installed bespoke lighting, furniture and planters. The space is now practical and beautiful wherever you look.

Project Year: 2017

Project Cost: £75,001 - £100,000

Country: United Kingdom

Bespoke, LED hoop-lights, nestle into the foliage of the walls, giving a magical glow. This image was just after the wall was installed. The plants have now grown much more.

The upper terrace has a large container with a rust finish, housing a multi-stemmed birch with lovely white and copper bark. The structure of the tree will stand out against the green background, especially in winter.

We installed bespoke furniture to make a multi-functional space and to add more colour. The table and benches continue the orange theme and the airy, ‘leaf’ loungers let light through the skylight to the room below. The sheepskins add texture, are easy to store and make the seats comfy enough to...

Two, chunky tree ferns were planted in a huge container on the lower, double-height terrace, outside the bedrooms. It’s a fantastic statement in this green cavern and a gives beautiful, calm view from inside.
