Created by Butler Wiltshire Architects for the City of London Corporation, this design is based on the traditional coats of arms of the City Livery Companies, and features terracotta from @darwenterracotta and reclaimed timber seats. 

In the words of the designers: “The sculptural, tessellating modules have been designed to respond to the City’s unique architectural heritage and provide much-needed pockets of seating and greenery within the high-rise Eastern City district…These symbols are synonymous with the City and can be seen throughout the district, typically on buildings, gateways and street furniture. From the archetypal shield motif, a subtly altered, tessellating tile geometry was developed. This was extruded to create vessels of six different heights, with the same basic form used to create both seats and planters.”
