Striking large cone-shaped planters in a finish designed to mimic weathered Corten Steel were created for Westfield shopping centre, Stratford, London E20.
A total of 36nr. large planters were supplied in heights 800/1200/1600mm, all with a top diameter of 1000mm. They were designed to be placed in groups of three, at intervals throughout the centre. Forklift apertures were included for ease of movement, which read as a design feature rather than a functional necessity.
The planters were commissioned and installed by Urban Planters London East, who complemented the chestnut brown Faux Corten finish with bright, lime-green planting.
