FOOD TRUCK GARAGE (CWD)
Located within the north-eastern corner of City Works Depot, Food Truck Garage's garden is nestled in one of the more sheltered areas of the whole site. The design of this garden was driven by the idea of creating a very relaxed, cottage-like atmosphere without departing too much from the overall rough aesthetic that has defined CWD. Soft, green vegetation reduces the impact of surrounding concrete walls and calms the whole area. Native shrubs mixed with geraniums and light green, creeping ground covers are the backbone of this garden.
