Since its construction 30 years ago, the educational building in Bloomsbury has had a roof garden that was revamped in 2001 into a serene Japanese garden. Originally part of the UK Japan 2001 Festival, it offers visitors a tranquil space for contemplation designed by Peter Swift. The garden is accessible through the SOAS Gallery building, featuring classic Japanese design elements and a theme of forgiveness. Overlooking busy London, the rooftop location ensures a peaceful ambiance, making it an important spot for relaxation and reflection.
The transformation of the Bloomsbury roof garden into a Japanese garden in 2001 adds a unique, tranquil space for public contemplation amidst London's bustle.
Conceived as a serene retreat, the garden features classic Japanese design elements, inviting visitors to engage in quiet reflection away from the city's noise.
