Tate Britain will build new Mediterranean and East Asian-inspired green spaces and a “garden classroom” for children.
The proposal, which was approved by Westminster City Council, will transform the gallery’s Millbank entrance by replacing the existing open spaces with a large and biodiverse public garden.
Architects Feilden Fowles, working for the gallery, said the project was a “comprehensive redesign” which focused on “softening” the gallery’s external appearance.
Tom Stuart-Smith, whose studio was lead designer for the gardens, said the new layout would result in a landscape that evolved throughout the year, “connecting people with nature’s cycles”.
