The name : The Green Swing

We felt that our project should have a name. We did not just want to call it "the project". It became "The Green Swing".

  We associate this name with:
  • The colour green: our gardens and obviously the colour of the environment movement;
  • A swing: hanging off a branch of an old tree (real gardens have swings);
  • A feeling: playfullness, fun, optimism, kids friendly, community;
  • Movement: going from A to B, changing direction, hopefully towards a more sustainable future.

You probably have your own associations too when you think of the name The Green Swing, images that pop up in your mind, a feeling.

And yes, we'd definitely want to have a green swing in the gardens of our project. And not just for the kids...
