Find Every Child Garden

Find Every Child Garden

Commemorative Garden

Every five minutes a child goes missing in the UK.

I was asked to design this space as a place of calm where visitors can remember their loved ones.

The design is an abstract of the circular symbol for The Flower of Life. Planting and colours were chosen according to their meaning in various cultures (e.g. blue Irises represent hope). Some have an appropriate common name (Summer forget-me-not) others have a meaningful variety name (Clematis ‘Pamiat Sertsa’ which translates as ‘Memories of the Heart’). 

It was made made possible thanks to Chiswick House and Gardens, Gavin Jones and the charity Missing People.
