The square will comprise a fountain that is planned for the central amphitheatre and will be designed in the shape of a hibiscus flower, Malaysia’s national flower.

Reclaimed chimney material from the power station’s rebuild programme will be used to clad the square to symbolise the links between Malaysia and Battersea.

The area, which is set to support a range of new developments, 24,000 new jobs and more than 18,000 new homes, includes the construction of a new underground station at Battersea.
