Drakkar's Drift Finds Permanent Home

from Edinburgh News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

A stunning award-winning garden named Drakkar’s Drift, inspired by Nordic longships and Scottish Highlands, has found its permanent home in Edinburgh’s Victoria Park—thanks to a community fundraising effort. Designed by Luke Coleman, who won Gold Medal and Young Designer of the Year, the garden blends natural rock formations with sensory elements like scent, sound, and texture. Now expanded with accessible paths, seating, trees, and wildlife habitats, it’s transforming former bowling greens into a vibrant community space. Plans include a braille map and more accessibility features, with fundraising still underway to keep the vision growing. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
