Portal Way, North Acton
The Portal Way Market Hall reimagines an underutilised industrial site into a dynamic, socially driven, food destination in Acton, providing industrial catering facilities with a 1,000+ square metre public food hall. Studio Bosk’s approach to the scheme embraces the relationship between food and landscape, integrating edible species throughout to create an immersive, educational experience in urban food production. Our landscape design, through early stage concepts to planning submission, utilises agroforestry and permaculture principles, and delivers an edible and educational landscape that is flexible for both large numbers of visitors and efficient food transportation.
