Three garden rooms are created at the ends of Kingdom Street; The Games Room with stepped timber seating facing the table tennis tables, The Reading Room with tall planting creating enclosure and seating embedded into the planter edges, and The Kitchen Garden with herb planting. These spaces extend the amenity and activity opportunities of the landscape. Kingdom Square forms the terminus to Kingdom Street. A central lawn is used for informal recreation, and organised events including Yoga, music and pop up food stalls. Planting around the perimeter creates an attractive edge to the Square and is a visual connection to the planting and character of Kingdom Street. Pocket spaces are defined by planting including a barbeque and firepit which acts as a spill out space for Number 4 Kingdom Street. Issue 34 2018 Landscape & Urban Design 55
