Cool Oak Lane Custom Planters

Creating vibrant, healthier streets with custom planters in Barnet

Partnering with Barnet Council, we helped introduce vibrant greenery to junction by a busy high street in the borough to create a cleaner and more inviting space for all people passing through. The collaboration came about as the neglected area had become a hotspot for fly-tipping and antisocial behaviour with the project acting as a deterrence measure to these behaviours.

Our approach was tailored to the site and needs of the council. The planters addressed the pressing issue of fly-tipping and anti-social behaviour while creating a greener, more pleasant residential side street adjacent to the high street.

Large-Scale Planters

Designing large-scale planters allowed the project to cover more space on the junction corner, aiming to create greater impact

Biodiverse Planting

We selected a plant scheme to enhance the green factor of the space, boosting biodiversity and vibrance

Consideration for Existing Infrastructure

The space had various crucial access and electrical infrastructure that we had to avoid so we made adjustments to the dimensions of the planters to avoid interfering with these

Community Maintenance

The gym opposite the planters location have taken on the maintenance of the planters to keep them looking fresh and vibrant on behalf of the council

The planters and planting scheme have created an overall more pleasant public space by introducing greenery, enhancing active travel routes and contributing to the reduction of anti-social concerns from Barnet Council.

Biodiversity Boost

A Vibrant High Street
