North Edinburgh Arts Garden

The architecturally designed award-winning garden landscape at North Edinburgh Arts was created during 2014 on former brownfield land adjacent to the principal Arts Centre Building. From a design perspective, it has been recognised for excellence via awards from the Scottish Urban Regeneration Forum, Scottish Civic Trust and Place Making UK.

The garden is a multi-themed greenspace focusing on providing access to artistic expression, community play-space and horticultural growing, with a primary focus on sustainable communities, cultural interpretation and environmental awareness.
