Brown Hart Gardens, designed by BDP
on behalf of Grosvenor is a historically sensitive elevated public
square on top of the roof of a Grade II listed substation. A new
accessible stair and glazed platform lift draws shoppers and tourists
toward the new destination, and offers a relaxing contemplative
environment away from the nearby crowds of Oxford Street. People and
plants are key to the rejuvenation of the space. Reconfigurable bespoke
planters and furniture create a flexible space that provides for a wide
variety of uses, and the new cafe integrates seamlessly with the
landscape environment allowing use all year round.
