Public Realm

There isn’t a single member of our Infrastructure team who doesn’t want to create public realm and community projects they can be proud of, and that’s an enthusiastic passionate service we’re keen to provide. One of the unique things we provide in our delivery is bringing our holistic technical experience and problem solving from other sectors to the public realm, driving environmental improvement, using local sustainably sourced modern materials, and bringing existing tired infrastructure back to life.

Some of the specific services and project types we’ve delivered include;

Initial site condition survey reporting
Urban Public Realm
Rural Trails & Sculptural Installations
Active Travel Greenways
Design for Tourism
Access for All Engineering
Rehabilitation of existing and heritage infrastructure
Technical Project Management.

Our extensive portfolio, viewable here, showcases our ability to deliver in a diverse range of public realm environments, from the small trail providing active travel recreation for rural communities, to the urban redevelopment of parts of London for Crossrail, partner with us to create resilient infrastructure that connects and enhances our communities.

Featured Project

Granary Square Stone Benches, Kings Cross

A set of eight giant benches for Granary Square at King’s Cross. The square is one of London's newest public spaces, and one of the largest of its kind in Europe. The benches are arranged in a formal arrangement of facing pairs around four existing fountain pools.

The timber sculpture is inspired by the natural woodland setting and the Gothic architecture of Hillsborough Parish Church.

Featured Project

Mute Meadows, Ebrington Barracks

Mute Meadow is a striking public artwork located at Ebrington Barracks, Derry~Londonderry, forming a key part of the site's urban regeneration. Designed in collaboration with international artists Vong Phaophanit and Claire Oboussier, this installation consists of up to 60 steel columns, each standing between six and eight metres in height. This was a key part of the public realm design for the now disused barracks site, linking the pedestrian corridor onto the Peace Bridge and through to the local Translink Railway Station. Extending from the former Parade Ground to the riverbank, the installation forms a symbolic and physical connection between past and present, enriching the city’s public realm with art, light, and architecture.
