Thomas Heatherwick is the designer of the Olympic Cauldron, the new “Boris buses”
the Rolling bridge at Paddington Basin,

and he is now working on a Garden Bridge for pedestrians crossing the Thames near Waterloo.
“With a structure that widens and narrows across its span, the elevated garden will not only be a safe and easy way for London’s many commuters and visitors to cross the river, it will also make places along its length for pedestrians to stop and better enjoy the remarkable river setting and unparalleled views of the city. The addition of careful planting with variety in scale, openness and intimacy will create a new kind of public space in the city.”
I think it looks amazing I really hope he can raise the £150m!
