Our timber-frame building was designed by Matrix Feminist Design Co-Operative, and built by women. It represents our community's history of activism - the same ethos that transformed our site from dereliction into a thriving community garden. At a time when women’s voices were largely excluded from the built environment, Matrix created community spaces with care, collaboration and social purpose.
