Successfully designed places are easy to spot as people tend to congregate in them. SRP is based in the heart of Whitechapel. We pass children on their way to school in the mornings, at lunch time friends catch up in the tiny park round the corner which turns into an evening teenage hang out.
Inspired by the local Whitechapel Bell foundry where Big Ben was cast, Charity Whitehead, Annie Sibthorp and Anna Voicehovsky independently whiled away some lockdown hours designing a bench that for them represents the diversity, resilience and character they love about this part of London.
