Planning Permission and Listed Building Consent Secured for the Restoration of the Grade II* Great Yarmouth Winter Gardens
In collaboration with BFF Architects and others, Coe Design is responsible for the planting the interior of the building and designing the new landscape to the exterior.
The new scheme aims to be as sustainable as possible, whilst respecting the historic fabric, and has implemented a 'Net Zero Carbon in Operation' strategy. Passive techniques have been developed to heat, cool and ventilate the space with the minimal use of energy and resources. The planting proposal is sensitive to the need to balance a comfortable environment for people with a suitable environment for plants. Species will refer to the Victorian Planting, using ferns, geraniums, orchids, and palm trees. Reference to trading routes will also be reflected in the chosen species. New external landscaping and public seating will be provided.

Public Housing Estates, Landscape Appraisals
CDLA are evaluating the landscape and grounds of some existing housing estates for London Borough of Islington.
Park View is a 1950’s / 60’s estate of multi-storey, deck access blocks and a point block, with access roads, car parking, landscape amenity and some play space. The blocks are set generally on grass with numerous mature existing trees, some of which date from the original 18-19th century Villas that used to be on the site. The existing landscape is generally open space, with the centre of the site being two large courtyards, which are partly green, with a ball court, roads and car parking areas and the perimeter of the blocks are mainly lawn.

The Centre provides a welcoming environment and specialist provision for people with disabilities, as well as services for the whole community, including a children’s library service, performance space and café.
The gardens have been created as a part of a series and form part of the sensory experience for users. Set between the building and the trees of the Grand Union canal these quieter spaces offer a sanctuary for experiencing the outdoors and nature.
