Walking among giant trees and contemplating majestic mountain views is never a bad way to spend a working day. Last Friday I had my first site visit to Benmore Botanic Garden where I’m working with Tea and Type design on an interpretation and signage refresh project. It’s an inspiring and peaceful garden and it isn’t often you can visit Japan, Bhutan and Chile and still be back in Glasgow in time for tea.
These photos are from a previous visit (courtesy of my talented friend Sarah Zadik). They show how fabulous the garden looks in Autumn, and leave little room for doubt that I am a tree hugger!We’re in the early stages of the project and are looking at a various small scale interventions that will enhance the visitor experience and make even more of Benmore.
