Bespoke powder coated steel planters were commissioned for the redevelopment of a London townhouse in prestigious St. Katharine’s Precinct, on the Outer Circle of Regent’s Park in London.
St. Katharine’s Precinct is situated on the prestigious Outer Circle of Regent’s Park. It was originally built in 1826-8 in the Gothic revival style, designed by Sir Ambrose Poynter who was a founding director of the RIBA and associate of John Nash, the architect of Regent’s Park itself.
The Precinct was originally part of the Royal Foundation of St. Katharine, a religious order and college, dating back to 1148; before becoming a cloister of privately owned properties after the Second World War.
The scheme was designed and specified by Annie Pearce of Metamorphosis Design and a variety of designs were commissioned, including:
window boxes measuring 2400mm long
rectangular trough planters of varying dimensions from 1250 to 1650mm in length
smaller tree and shrub planters of L 600 x W 600 x H 750mm
Some planters were of a simple geometric design, while others were fabricated with plinths, to create a shadow gap around the base.
All planters were manufactured from 1.5mm Zintec steel, polyester powder coated.
