Bowes Park Community Garden, North London
client: Haringey Council

Haringey Council has embarked on reclaiming waste ground in North London and turning them into community garden areas for local residents to enjoy a 'peaceful & green' time.

They were keen that these gardens were 'branded' appropriately and had a community feel, and would not be mistaken as a usual council park. They approached us to produce a set of unique icons displaying the rules of the garden in a less 'council' manner. A separate secure notice-board displaying opening times and details was created and produced. The centre was given it's sense of community by the creation of a hand-painted wrought iron arch above the entrance.
