The Green Room
The chair (Flora) and ottoman (Otto) were created from china donated by hundreds of people after the Christchurch earthquakes. They have been lovingly mosaicked by a team of volunteers called Crack’d for Christchurch. This Green Room garden at 599 Colombo Street was created by Greening the Rubble from plants salvaged from the residential red zone. The Green Room project is a wonderful celebration of local history showing that what is broken can be rebuilt.
“We all had china break and crack
and here we get some pieces back.”
