COMMUNAL TREE

A communal space designed for residents at Stockwell Park Estate, London.

The Communal Tree is a piece of public furniture designed in coordination with The Community Trust and residents of Stockwell Park Estate. The Tree is designed to act as a social space, while providing shelter in the plaza of the estate. This canopy would be a mesh that is slowly filled by different climber plants which would be maintained by the estate’s gardeners.

In 2023, a 1 to 1 scale model of the Communal Tree was shown at the Social Hack Exhibition at Stockwell Park Estate, where residents of the estate voted to have the furniture installed.
