Article Abstract:

The Emslie Horniman Pleasance park in North Kensington contains the Voysey Garden designed by C F A Voysey in 1913. The area is the launch pad of the Notting Hill Carnival each August. Studio E Architects were commissioned to undertake its regeneration, with Julian Harrap Architects in charge of the restoration of the Voysey Garden. Fundamental changes to the existing layout of the park were made and materials were chosen for their robustness and appropriate detailing.
