‘Shoreline’ Landscape at Folkestone Seafront We’re proud to see ‘Shoreline’ come to life — a landscape shaped by nature, inspired by the sea, and rooted in place for client Folkestone Harbour & Seafront Development Company in collaboration with ACME Drawing from the rhythms of longshore drift and the ecology of the coast, this design reflects a deep respect for climate, character, and community. The Shingle Gardens echo the wild forms of Dungeness, blending natural textures with resilient coastal planting. The Residents’ Podium Garden is a sheltered, vibrant oasis, filled with Mediterranean-inspired greenery. The Boardwalk and future Shingle Gardens connect homes, gardens, and the seafront through a welcoming, walkable landscape. Every element has been carefully considered to work with, not against, the natural forces of the coastline. A new shoreline for Folkestone has arrived. #Folkestone #SeafrontMasterplan #ShorelineFolkestone #LandscapeArchitecture #DesignWithNature #PublicRealm #CoastalDesign #UrbanGreening #Biodiversity #ShingleGarden #PodiumGarden #PlaceMaking #NatureInspiredDesign Photography: Studio Maple

🌱 What a fantastic community event hosted by the Old Kent Road Family Zone at Surrey Square Primary School! As part of the day, Spacehub joined the fun with a stall for the Berkeley Group Plc Bermondsey Place development — checking in with children, families, and friends from across Southwark. We had some brilliant conversations, plenty of painting and planting, and everyone got to take home wildlife-friendly seed balls to help renature the local area. 💚 Plenty more events and workshops are on the way! #BermondseyPlace #SouthwarkCommunity #UrbanGreening #Spacehub #BerkeleyHomes #OldKentRoad #CommunityEvents #SustainableCities

Exciting Progress on the Alton Renewal Plan! The Alton Renewal Plan is moving forward with early improvement works at Downshire Field and the Alton Activity Centre. We’ve now reached the Stage 4 milestone and are officially out to tender. We’re proud to help shape this transformative scheme for Wandsworth Council and the Roehampton community. Our engagement work goes beyond planning—we’ve been actively engaging with the community, hosting youth advisory panel workshops to shape the detailed designs. This summer, construction begins, bringing these shared visions one step closer to reality. 🌱 Congratulations to the team that all contribute to it's ongoing success Wandsworth Council Stantec Potter Raper CampbellReith TMA Environmental Consultants Light Follows Behaviour PlayEquip RPS PJC Consultancy Ltd Arup

Happy International Day of Forests! As the weather warms, the boundless energy of having a toddler means that we are constantly seeking new places to go outdoors and explore. Despite living in a big city natural greenspaces do exist, and I was fortunate enough to have the sun out whilst exploring the Parkland Walk near Alexandra Palace. The Parkland Walk is the longest linear nature reserve in London at 4km in length and follows the former railway line connecting Finsbury Park to Alexandra Palace that opened in 1873. The walk is very effective at transporting you away from the feeling of being in inner city London with parts of the walk classified as a closed canopy woodland. We shouldn’t shy away from designing woodlands adjacent to residential neighbourhoods on highly urban sites. In fact, every community deserves access to a woodland, and you don’t need much space to achieve this! At Spacehub, we’ve embraced this philosophy through projects like Mill Harbour Forest. For client Ballymore an immersive woodland is nestled within a vibrant new neighbourhood. It’s proof that every community deserves access to natural spaces – and that even a small site can leave a big impact. 🌱 May Jan MacIntyre (Associate)

We’re delighted to share that London Borough of Newham has unanimously approved our landscape vision for 68-70 Stratford High Street! Designed in collaboration with our client The Pickstock Group Real Estate and Architects Pollard Thomas Edwards and a talented team of consultants, this transformative development will turn an underutilised brownfield site into a dynamic, climate-resilient landscape, integrating the Bow Back River to create a new community green space. Our design activates the river edge with ecological interventions, planted islands, and new pontoon access, reconnecting Stratford residents with the water. At its core, the project fosters a welcoming, inclusive environment, where people of all ages and abilities can gather, play, and interact with nature. Play is woven into the landscape, inspired by the site’s historic osier beds, blending formal structures with natural, spontaneous play opportunities. This placemaking-led vision will enhance Stratford’s connectivity, biodiversity, and community cohesion, delivering: - 355 riverside homes with a community café & performance venue for cultural events, exhibitions, and concerts - Intergenerational play spaces integrated into the landscape - Much needed urban greening and cycleway improvements to Stratford High Street - Riverside ecological and water sport interventions - A net uplift of 36 trees & 2,674m² of publicly accessible open space - 221% increase in new biodiverse habitat & UGF 0.43 We’re thrilled to bring this vision to life—stay tuned for updates!
