18 Oct 2017
Every year, suspended high above the heads of Sydneysiders in custom manufactured hanging baskets by Emerdyn, beautiful bursts of colour bloom as part of the City of Sydney Living Colour Exhibition.

Under the talented design, planning and coordination of Citywide, who has engaged Emerdyn to repair previous and manufacture new planters and hanging baskets for the city since 2013, Living Colour has become one of the largest seasonal floral displays of its kind in Australia.
The botanical celebration consists of 400 hanging baskets and 800 planters blooming across Sydney. The latest crop of botanical bushels sits proudly throughout the city, displaying the same level of fine craftsmanship as the Emerdyn Boulevarde seats and Oxford bin enclosures they overlook.
