Lush Green Straight:
To pull the room together, accessories with natural motifs and organic shapes are dotted around. Pieces of stylish ceramic pottery with soft shapes look great against the oak table, while tiles with a dandelion pattern add a natural note to the walls. Candles in the fireplace provide soft light in the evenings while houseplants add a shot of lush green straight from nature.Among the varieties of chalcedony, carnelian, or sard, is red or brownish-red; chrysoprase, apple-green; prase, a dull, darker green; plasma, leek green or emerald green; and bloodstone, dark green with small red spots, like drops of blood. Agate, a chalcedony with delicate parallel bands of color, or irregularly clouded color effects, is white, red, brown, or blue. Moss agate contains mosslike forms caused by oxide of manganese. In onyx, the differently colored bands are straight and parallel. Sardonyx is onyx containing bands of carnelian (sard).
The Docklands Authority selected American Landscape Architect, Martha Schwartz, to design the space. Her design features a striking composition of a red 'carpet' extending from the theatre into and over the dock crossed by a lush green 'carpet' of paving with lawns and vegetation. The red 'carpet' will be made of bright red resin-glass paving covered with red glowing angled light sticks.
