In this particular design Heatherwick combines a complex structure with a simple, quiet, reverent message. The designer says he was inspired by the “relationship between nature and cities” and decided to celebrate the UK’s beautiful green spaces by teaming up with the world famous Kew Gardens in London and the Millennium Seedbank project, whose mission is to collect the seeds of 25% of the world’s plant species by 2020.
I find the design exceptionally inspirational. The design 'reaches out' into the surrounding area with the aim to 'implant' elements from all around the world. This is a similar aim to that of my personal project -to 'disperse' the scottish design talent from DJCAD within Dundee and throughout Scotland.
