Inner Garden and Outer Landscape

Chiswick Business Park, London, UK

A public garden within a major office development near central London, a central gathering space for some of the world’s leading companies.

The landscaping approach of the project provided two clearly defined spaces: the ‘inner garden’ and the ‘outer landscape’.

Chiswick Park takes the form of a necklace of 12 office buildings within 33 acres of landscaped gardens. Each building faces the Park’s ‘inner garden’ with a featured two-tier lake, waterfall, decked boardwalk, pathways, events space and lush landscaping. The ‘inner garden’ was designed as an elevated space at the centre of the site onto which the buildings face – with the ‘outer landscape’ as a pragmatic design that includes site boundaries, peripheral car parking and arterial corridors between the buildings.

Created with well-being in mind: If you enjoy work, you do better work. If you do better work, you have a better business.

The Campus provides an environment where people take pleasure in their work and are therefore more productive: From flexible seating to spaces designed for adaptable uses and events, the campus offers a place for people to relax, connect and recharge.
