The centre has partnered with green design and lifestyle product resource, Green Elephant Collective to curate the Cavendish Square LIFTED project, working with local design talents to create an environment within the centre that will bring a smile to shoppers' faces, whilst also providing them direction to the various alternative entrances to the centre during the escalator refurbishment.
Part of this pioneering project includes collaboration between these artists and local school children who will create a magical forest on the lower ground floor of Cavendish Square, as part of the Cavendish Square LIFTED School Arts Project in association with Plascon.
Said project curator Ute Faure, "A magic forest of cardboard trees and plastic leaves will be fixed to the hoarding, along with birds and flowers painted by scholars aged 12 to 13 years. Plascon has very generously sponsored the paints that they will be using to create their forest masterpieces."
It has donated paints from its 2012 Colour Palette, including Memory, Mystery, Expression and Origin. Each school will paint an area in accordance with one of these themes.
Said Cavendish Square centre manager, Brenda Bibby, "We are excited to see what the learners create and, with the expert guidance of recycled paper designer Keri Muller and installation artist Lizanne Visser, we have no doubt that the art installations will be of a high standard."
