Text from John Wardle Architects:
This multifaceted project, initiated by a passionate private patron, captures the vision of an integrated performance space, garden and art gallery. The performance space and gallery are entered though and linked by a central garden.
A collaborative project, each element is authored by a different hand – John Wardle Architects are designing the gallery and Durbach Block Jaggers are designing the performance space.
The buildings and gardens are linked at many levels, above and below ground, allowing for an intense interlocking of performance, nature and art.
