Pitched deep in 1970s culture, ‘The Pinball Garden’ showcased at the Ellerslie Flower Show was a gold award winner for Unitec second year students Rianne Stevens and Benjamin Ragland. The garden was designed for a fictitious ‘Pinhead’ client – a middle-aged pinball enthusiast who needs a bright, fun space to come home to after all day office work, resulting in an innovative design of an enclosed apartment courtyard comprising an arrangement of components inspired by those of a pinball machine.
Pinball inspired features saw bumpers as steel ring planters holding massive hybrids, flipper tables as sunken planters and lighting effects bounce around the garden through the use of mirrors. All of this creativity was set against a backdrop of striking wallpaper and Resene Enamacryl tinted to Resene All Black for stark contrast.
