The Green Room is an outdoor sculpture area on the corner of Wellington Street and Northern Street.

Cover in green astroturf, it will include huge living room furniture such as a television, table, sofa and a lamp, and won’t help but capture the public’s imagination and become a talking point. Rick de Blaby, chief executive of MEPC, has said “Our vision is to create the definitive new urban quarter for Leeds of the highest quality. We especially want to create a fantastic public domain so it will be a great place to live and work and enjoy all of the associated amenities that we will be bringing forward.”

    This looks like a similar ideaa to Parco Sempione in Milan where household objects are used as sculptures in an open space. It was actually fenced off unfortunately in this instance.
