    Bringing nature back to cities at Canary Wharf London!

    Eden Dock launch - A beautiful, urban oasis built by Canary Wharf London and Eden Project Cornwall. 

    We were delighted to work alongside Agrumi topiary to produce 21 hand crafted human sculptures created from moss and dried flowers. Each statue represents the blending of the natural world with urban life. 

    Floating gardens, mossy human sculptures and new habitats for birds, bees and insects. Eden dock is part of a larger plan to build a green corridor through the center of Canary Wharf, giving wildlife back into the city! 

    Another great way this area is using nature to replace concrete is with the crossrail place roof garden which is home to both native plants and species from around the world. 

    Below Canary Wharf, the waste management facility prevents 100% of waste from the properties they manage from going to landfill by recovering and sorting on site!
