We were recently invited by Kazuyuki Ishihara to design a Show Garden for the Gardening World Cup 2010, which was held in his home city of Nagasaki, Japan. The garden, sponsored by Resurgence, received a Silver award.

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.
