Discover Meristem Design's innovative approach to urban sustainability with the award-winning SuDS Planter - AquaPlanter. Our latest project in Newham schools not only showcases the fusion of flood resilience and environmental education but also brings the joys of edible planting to the heart of the community. By integrating these living, growing spaces, we’re cultivating a greener future and sowing the seeds of environmental stewardship in the next generation.
On behalf of the London Borough of Lambeth, we embarked on a mission to design, construct, and install over 520 meters of 1.8m tall Hedera screens at 16 schools within 4 months, targeting pollution-affected areas. Our comprehensive approach included initial surveys, bespoke design, construction, and a 12-month maintenance plan, alongside essential training and handover for school staff, to protect students from air pollution and enhance environmental education.
Meristem Design teamed up with Coppermill Primary School for the third annual Call to Earth Day - a global initiative by CNN. This collaboration represents a significant stride towards fostering environmental awareness and instilling a sense of responsibility for the planet's well-being. The aim was to showcase schools actively contributing to environmental solutions.
