Abbey Orchard Estate is a late 19th century Peabody Development, minutes away from Parliament. With very low car ownership on the estate, in 2003 a new garden to replace parking within the courtyard was commissioned. The artist worked with A2 Graphics to create a bespoke font for text and map wall. Giant fruit sculptures were introduced as part of the place making strategy.
Abbey Orchard Estate received a UK Landscape Award in 2012
