Public Art Commission: Milton Keynes
Deadline: June 13, 2014, 9:00 am
PHP Architects and Lewis (Ayr) Ltd are inviting expressions of interest from artists with experience of working in the public realm; to develop an artwork for the external courtyard and amenity space to a new office building in Milton Keynes.
The new building has a strong geometric design, partly informed by the site and part by the client’s involvement with the automotive industry. The design is a combination of sleek curves intersected by straight-lines to create a high quality, fluid form, where more of the detail is revealed the closer you get to the building.
A feature of the design is a external amenity court, with a mix of hard and soft landscaping and planting. The Amenity court has been selected as the ideal location for the installation of Public Art.
The Commission has a budget of £100,000 fully inclusive of artist fees, design development, fabrication, enabling/groundwork and installation
