This archway I designed has recently been installed on the island at Queen Elizabeth Park (see separate page in right hand column). I am so excited to see the idea from my head transformed by the talented crew at Progressive Engineering. It is made from Corten steel, with the eels cut-out, and stainless steel put behind to give a translucent effect (and stop little fingers getting snagged). I love it!
Also much of the furniture has been installed on the island, including a board walk across the water inlet, and three picnic tables. Things are finally falling in to place, which is thanks to the great efforts of a team of volunteers. Fantastic.
I would be interested to know how many family groups use it as a frame for family photos. Would be perfect.
