Co-designed with communities, visitors and end-users the transformation of the external Clyde quayside environment at GSC has adopted a ‘grey to green’ approach to urban landscaping. The project features outdoor interactive science exhibits, a Fibonacci garden at the building entrance, new segregated cyclepaths connecting in to the national network, enhanced biodiversity with aquatic planting in the former moats, new soft landscaping and street trees. Existing materials were reused and upcycled including upcycled security bollards reimagined through community art projects with local schools, communities and disability groups. GSC secured a Green Tourism Award in 2021 and is host to the COP26 UN Climate Change Conference Green Zone.
