We are designing The Eden Project: Bring Me Sunshine Garden for the RHS Chelsea Flower Show 2026, in collaboration with the Eden Project, Alex Michaelis of Michaelis Boyd Associates, and supported by Project Giving Back. Inspired by the sweeping landscapes of Morecambe Bay and its community, the garden celebrates regeneration, creativity, and the power of young people to shape a brighter, more hopeful future.

At its centre stands a striking solar-powered pavilion – part shelter, part classroom – where craft, horticulture, and innovation come together. Set on a shell-inspired island surrounded by a reflective pool, the structure captures and recycles rainwater, creating a living system that embodies resilience and renewal. Around it, limestone boulders, reclaimed materials, and salt-tolerant planting reflect the beauty and toughness of the bay.
The planting evokes a soft, windswept coastal meadow, alive with pinks, yellows, and flashes of blue. Resilient grasses and perennials sway with the tide of the wind, offering both productivity and poetry. Every element tells a story of regeneration – from the reimagined materials beneath your feet to the edible and useful plants that sustain life and nurture biodiversity.
