Artist Ivan Morison discusses the structure of the sculptural counselling cabin that will be installed in the restored garden in Piccadilly as part of The Wren Project.” “What we have is eight different cassettes; they are the wall sections that come in between curving the oak frame of the building, then above that there’s a wall plate, and then a gap, then another wall plate, so we have a window, then above that we have the roof curving upwards coming to an opening at the top with all the joists curving towards that.” Ivan Morison, Artist #gardensforgoodcauses #rhschelsea #rhschelseaflowershow

Rector Lucy Winkett talks about restoring this historic, Wren-designed church and grounds following the RHS Chelsea Flower Show. “We are going to restore this garden; we want to make it accessible step-free everywhere. We are going to develop the biodiverse planting in the garden, and the flower show garden is really a slice of the new garden. As part of that, the counselling hut has been redesigned, and it will ensure that we are able to do what we do now but with much greater impact.” Lucky Winkett, Rector of St James’s Church, Piccadilly. #rhschelsea #rhschelseaflowershow

Robert talks about this iconic Wren church and the transparent windows designed to admit abundant natural light that we replicated for the RHS Chelsea garden. “The windows, in a sense, were one of the iconic elements of the building, so what we have done is to incorporate one of the windows into the rear wall of our show garden, and the way that the garden is set up at the showground means the public will actually be able to look through the rear window as well as from the garden side, so the public will be able to both see in and see out.” Robert Myers MA (Cantab), PGDipLA, CMLI, MSGD #rhschelsea #rhschelseaflowershow

English actor, broadcaster, comedian, director, narrator, and writer Stephen Fry discusses relocating our RHS Chelsea garden to St James’s Piccadilly. “Standing here in the middle of St James’s, this is the heart of London’s west end surrounded by the most magnificent stores and shops, but you may say that the one thing it lacks, of course, is a green space. This garden which is charming enough now, but after its taken its place at the Chelsea Flower Show, the first church to ever be granted such an honour, I think we will see an even more remarkable space.” Stephen Fry #gardensforgoodcauses #rhschelsea #rhschelseaflowershow

This week, we have been relocating our RHS Chelsea garden, setting out and planting at St James’s partner church, St Pancras Euston Road. Here, we revisit the build-up to the show and discuss our garden inspiration. “We have been really inspired by the amazing Wren church, the qualities of it as a building, as a piece of architecture; what’s really lovely about the site at Chelsea is that it will have these amazing plain trees as a backdrop, similar height and character, so it will give the garden the same quality of dappled shade, sitting under trees that we have here, transporting people who come to the show to St James’s so they have the same feeling of character and sense of place” Robert Myers MA (Cantab), PGDipLA, CMLI, MSGD #gardensforgoodcauses #rhschelsea #rhschelseaflowershow
