Jebb Avenue, Brixton Hill

What a transformation: a tired outdoor space to a colourful and vibrant community hub for the deserving residents of Jebb Avenue. Gone are the timber railings, replaced by thirteen custom-made raised beds, with colourful and softening planting. Bespoke tables and benches, built by the Streetscape team from sleepers, were also installed to provide the perfect space for residents to socialise.

‘Streetscape have worked wonders, building planters, fantastic bespoke tables and benches. Jay and his team were extremely professional. If residents asked any questions they were very helpful, polite and engaged with all the kids that asked about the flowers, shrubs etc. Gone is the mess we had before and the area has been transformed into an oasis of calm. Residents already sitting out chatting, watching the kids. Area feels totally different.’
