Article source: Edgley Design The veins and arteries of London’s infrastructure networks are exposed across the industrial wastelands of the Lea Valley in East London, dividing and fragmenting the landscape, creating splinters of dislocated, inaccessible gap space.
A new pedestrian infrastructure knits together these hidden landscapes, co-ordinated by corners, new physical connections at critical points.
