Crystal Black granite kerb detail, itself an emphatic 205m long x 700mm wide, was inlaid throughout its length with Royal White granite text, all supplied by Hardscape. The Artscape text further explored and narrated the events that had shaped the site for almost a thousand years. Its functionality is also critical to the scheme; its length articulated with elegant but engineered and robust dropped kerbs, transitions setts & crossing points.
Hardscape worked closely with Artist Chris Tipping and CH2M (landscape architects) as well as Balfour Beatty Living Places and Balfour Beatty were the main contractors.
