Kickstarter launched for Zaha Hadid designed crazy golf course in Trafalgar Square

London Design Festival has launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund a crazy golf course in London’s Trafalgar Square.

The development includes designs by Zaha Hadid and Paul Smith, who is curator and ambassador for the project.

Other holes include a funnel and nest of pneumatic tubes by Tom Dixon, a circuitous maze by Mark Wallinger, a netted driving range by the Japanese studio Atelier Bow-Wow and the cross-section of a giant pigeon by Ordinary Architecture.

The steps in front of the National Gallery will be transformed into coloured stripes, topped with a neo-classical clubhouse with a turf roof and putters for columns.

The project hopes to raise £120,000 by 6 June. It has raised just over £9,000 so far.

If the £120,000 goal is reached it will be matched by sponsors and will be installed in September.
