The latest addition to Prologis RFI DIRFT features lush landscaping and an amphitheatre-style event space, enhancing the UK’s largest rail-served logistics park.
SGP designed the landscaping to align with Prologis’ PARKlife ideals, fostering business growth, nature, community, and connectivity at Shenley Park.
Barry Chinn Associates incorporated fluid paths, diverse planting, mature trees, and wildflower meadows, enhancing biodiversity and maintaining clear site boundaries.
A central plaza with amphitheatre seating for 100, smaller seating areas, and a pétanque court create inviting spaces for relaxation and exercise.
The design transforms traditional structural planting into a vibrant, multi-use space, promoting year-round engagement with colors, scents, and amenities.
“The new landscaping at DIRFT supports Prologis’ PARKlife vision, fostering business, nature, community, and connectivity. Shenley Park serves as a green link between the site and its surroundings.”
