Search on for Diana fountain designer
LONDON (Reuters) - A worldwide search for a design team to create a three million pound
fountain in Hyde Park in memory of Princess Diana will be launched next week.
The Royal Parks Agency said on Friday that the winning designers should aim to "delight the eyes,
stimulate the senses, enhance the surrounding ecological habitats, and evoke the spirit of the princess".
Diana, ex-wife of heir to the throne Prince Charles, was killed in a car crash in Paris in 1997.
The fountain will be built on the shore of the park's Serpentine lake, along the Diana Memorial Walk. It is
expected to be completed by the summer of 2003.
The memorial has been commissioned by the Diana Memorial Committee, headed by finance minister Gordon Brown.
Royal Parks Chief Executive William Weston said the memorial should reflect "the public's emotional
response to Diana".
"Whatever the final form, the design must be fresh and imaginative, drawing inspiration from the princess
herself, the place, the landscape, and especially the essential qualities of water, movement, reflection,
playfulness and its role as a life-giving element," Heston said.
We will hold you to that promise...
Mr.Brown
