Bespoke metal planters in Wandsworth

Wandsworth is where our Rufus Business Centre scheme sits, on Ravensbury Terrace in SW17: a large L-shaped residential courtyard with faceted planter islands, integrated bench seating and multi-stem trees threading through the circulation. It is a good example of what the borough tends to ask for — planters that shape how people move through a shared space, not just contain planting.

Bespoke metal planters of the kind we fabricate and install in Wandsworth — Serpentine matte black planter run with mixed shrub and grass planting winding through a new-build courtyard.

Across Battersea, Nine Elms and Earlsfield the pattern repeats at different scales, from podium decks over car parks to modest shared courtyards between two blocks. We design, fabricate and install the whole system.

What we build in Wandsworth

Local conditions

Built for Wandsworth

01

Courtyards that shape circulation

Faceted and tapered planter islands can define routes, seating pockets and quiet corners without a single fence. We build those geometries as welded shells so the angles stay crisp.

02

Podium over structure

Battersea and Nine Elms decks sit over parking and plant. Load allowances are fixed early, so we work to a weight budget with false bases and lightweight aluminium where required.

03

Railway-side terraces

Several Wandsworth sites step down alongside railway embankments. Long tapered planters that follow that fall are a recurring detail, each panel cut to its own height.

Delivery & access

Residential schemes here are usually delivered to a live site with a phased handover. We plan deliveries around the contractor's crane and hoist availability, and install floor by floor or block by block as areas are released.

Planning & context

Wandsworth consents commonly carry landscape and amenity conditions specifying soil volume and tree provision. We build to the specified volumes and coordinate tree pit anchorage with the landscape contractor.
