We have recently been invited by Kazuyuki Ishihara to design a Show Garden for the forthcoming Gardening World Cup 2010 to be held in his home city of Nagasaki, Japan.

In May we were awarded the Silver Gilt for the L'Occitane Garden at Chelsea Flower Show.

This garden is essentially a borrowed landscape, a little piece of Haute Provence, the original landscape that inspired the sponsor to create the L’Occitane brand over 30 years ago. We attempted to bottle this essence to make a garden that awakened the senses with its bright colours, evocative scents and the gnarled structural forms of aged olive trees.

See the garden in more detail on the BBC website.
