To mark this unique occasion, we’ve teamed up with children in the UK to celebrate as a community.
The Burberry Floating Meadow
Docked close to the Tower of London, an extension of the Jubilee celebrations is found in a floating meadow. Surrounding a winding pathway, over 5,000 herbaceous plants, grass species and wildflowers create a mini ecosystem that celebrates the local flora, fauna and pollinators that are crucial to nurturing our natural habitats.
A zero-waste installation, the structure was built using over 1.4 tonnes of recycled plastic – the equivalent of 3.3 million single-use straws – recovered from waterways around the UK, while all the plants used will be replanted to live on in local community projects.
Every aspect of the installation has been carefully monitored to evaluate and reduce its impact, including the tugboat used to move the meadow into position. The craft is powered by HVO fuel – a low-emission, low-carbon alternative to regular diesel that is fossil-free – produced using renewable waste materials.
The plants selected highlight the role that natural grasslands and marshes can play in storing carbon and the flowering species that provide food, nectar and shelter to pollinators and common riverside wildlife.
The Burberry Art Wall
An embodiment of Burberry’s belief that creativity opens spaces, the Burberry Art Wall encourages a new generation of creatives to explore the future of our world with limitless imagination.
