Designed by Ruth Willmott Associates the garden is a modern interpretation of two of William Morris’s most iconic wallpaper designs, Trellis and Willow Boughs, and uses colour and pattern to bring his beautiful interiors into the natural outdoor setting which inspired them.
Incorporating
the movement and sound of water into a garden can transform the space,
but it’s important to make sure it creates the precise sound and the
atmosphere you want to achieve before installing it.
In the Morris & Co. Garden at RHS Chelsea this
year, a sequence of water channels will flow though the space inlaid
with metal screens that will be laser-cut with Morris’ famous Willow
Boughs pattern.
"I
have long admired the work of William Morris, so it was a tremendous
thrill to create this garden for Morris & Co. and we are all SO
delighted to receive a Gold medal!" - Ruth Willmott
"Bringing the garden to life has involved dozens of skilled and dedicated experts each adding a creative layer to the finished garden, and it’s been particularly thrilling to collaborate with so many talented craftspeople this year." - Ruth Willmott
