Appearance at Chelsea 2006

Barry Holdsworth & Rock Unique : "Picture This" - Bronze Medal Winner

The parquet used in our city roof garden "Picture this" was produced for Chelsea in 150mm wide strips of varying lengths. The parquet shows off to advantage the elegance of porphyry and the wonderful variation occurring from piece to piece. Porphyry is a low porosity stone that offers excellent slip resistance. The black slate backdrops and planters emphasize the contemporary feel of this garden.

A fusion of concept, design and materials between Barry Holdsworth and Rock Unique.

The "Picture This" garden was constructed offsite and precisely reassembled by Nick Edser and his crew from Langdale Landscapes. Black slate, in this case cut from large slabs, is a versatile tought material useful both inside and out.

Cleve West : Saga Insurance Garden - Gold Medal Winner

Porphyry is a volcanic stone of rare beauty. Body colours range from steel-grey to russet and even violet. Surface mineral colours vary from green to brown. Sometimes primodial fern-like silhouettes mark the surface. The stone provides understated charm with the wonderful property that it enhances and compliments most surroundings without stealing the scene.

Extensive use of porphyry has been made in this dramatic yet simple design. The faces of the walls show the subtle variation in the body colour of the stone. The copings have been selected and cut to size to finish the walls. The paths are also paved with sawn edge porphyry. The timeless appeal of this stone sits naturally with the planting and large man-made elements of the design.

Designed by Cleve West and built to the high show standards of Henley-Salt.

Chloe Salt : Reflective Height - Silver Medal Winner

Parquet, this time in honed grey sandstone, is used to provide a contemporary edge to this year round garden. The contrast in the stone is highlighted by the strip design, the natural swirls and ripples of darker tones leave the slight impression of woodgrain in the mind alongside the modern feel of honed stone in this tranquil scene.

Grey Sandstone is moderately hard with predominately grey coloration. Ranging from light to mid grey with banding of darker tones, this sandstone also has occasional rusty coloration in areas and spots that provide greater interest. Also available as standard tiles.

Designed and built by Chloe Salt,
Jeremy Salt & Roger Bullock of Henley-Salt.

Sotherbys trade stand

Designed in-house at Sotherbys to show a sample of both their contemporary and antique garden statuary and furniture. The objective was to create a relatively simple but clearly natural backdrop for this desirable collection of new and old objects d'art for the garden.

Wheat sandstone is richly coloured with yellows, tans and mellow orangey tones. Occasional pieces are detailed with dramatic dark brown swirls for added interest. The warm colours lend a summer like softness to the ambiance of any setting.


Designed by Mark Blan, built band planted by Andy Sturgeon.
