World's End Place

World's End Place lies on the northern edge of the World's End Estate, close to the River Thames. The design of this striking plaza in Chelsea followed a commission from the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea to undertake environmental improvements at World's End Place, at the western end of King’s Road. Public consultation was undertaken in two stages to ensure that community opinion was fully represented, and fed into the design process.

The plaza focuses around a black granite ellipse emerging from a pale green granite field which can be used as a performance or market space. Other works included a new lighting scheme, granite benches with timber seats, and new trees. Careful consideration was given to the long term flexibility of the space, and how it was to be maintained.
