Grass roots developments “The Festival aims to highlight London’s building design and construction to a global audience just weeks before the start of the Games.” First year architecture and interior architecture students at London Metropolitan University are designing a ‘pop-up’ initiative of models, ideas and proposals to make ‘High Street 2012’ ‘a Place of Pleasure’, in Aldgate, East London. ‘High Street 2012’ is a project to improve and celebrate one of London’s great high streets and is part of the London Festival of Architecture. The Festival aims to highlight London’s building design and construction to a global audience just weeks before the start of the Games. Using abandoned spaces to create ‘garden rooms’ the project is one of the biggest projects of its kind to encourage students to gain experience working with some of the largest organisations in the university’s local community. While many universities have been aiding the UK’s regeneration, the University of Sheffield has played a unique role in London 2012. PhD student Helen Hoyle has produced trial plots at the Olympic venues where she has manipulated native London plants to delay the flowering process by six weeks to produce a spectacular flowering display in East London during the opening ceremony. 58 SECTION FIVE : THE GAMES: past, present and future
