Ballymore EcoWorld Wardian, Residences London
Wardian sets a new standard in high-rise living combining modern architecture with innovative landscaping in the heart of London’s financial centre, Canary Wharf. Residents can enjoy amenities such as Sky Garden on 53rd floor, gym, swimming pool, cinema and a resident lounge.
The towers’ design has been inspired by the work of one Londoner, the great explorer, botanist, and inventor, Nathaniel Bagshaw Ward. A doctor by trade, he changed the world with his botanical glass container, the deceptively simple-looking ‘Wardian case’. Jackson Daly proposed a signage scheme that captured a fusion of Victorian typography with modern materials.
