A container garden designed for RHS Chelsea Flower Show, celebrating contrasts: fire and water, sleek steel and earthy brick, sociability and solitude. The garden reimagines salvaged urban materials — corrugated steel, copper, corten and reclaimed brick — transforming base elements into a soulful, calming sanctuary. At its heart, a suspended antique hanging bench invites people to sit side by side, surrounded by harmonious opposing elements. Rain-harvested water threads through the garden, gathering around this calm focal point. Fresh, lush planting with a colour palette inspired by fire and water celebrates how differences can coexist beautifully in one space. Beyond the show, every material and plant will be reused or donated, extending the garden's legacy into new community green spaces.
