project overview
At Danneskiold-Samsøes Allé, Holmen, Copenhagen, we are currently developing ‘the fourth garden’, our first planned garden in public space. The project site is a long stretch of grass squeezed between the Royal Danish Academy campus and a major avenue, generously provided by the property developer Jeudan.
design inspiration
The design of the garden is inspired by classic wishing wells found in public spaces, where coins are tossed in for one’s fate. The concept unfolds here in a series of planting beds arranged in the numerical sequence of our MobilePay box. Visitors are invited to engage with the garden on both on an intimate level and through the broader design concept by swiping us a financial contribution, fostering a sense of ownership over the development of both the garden and our emerging architecture studio.
collaboration and sustainability
Partnering with Jeudan lends legitimacy and support to our work and evolving identity. We greatly appreciate their goodwill towards our efforts in promoting biodiversity and well-being. The planting for the project was made possible by a generous donation of recycled perennials from Staudemarken in Aabybro, Denmark. Special thanks to Jeudan and Staudemarken, and to Staudemarken's director Tina Møller for her invaluable advice and hospitality - we look forward to continuing this collaboration.
