Hugo will be discussing how to build greener show gardens at Futurescape on 15 March. Speaking in the RHS Show Garden Theatre with Mark Gregory and Paul Cowell, he will share how the studio approaches the creation of show gardens with sustainability in mind – how they make choices over materials and how securing an after-life for every show garden they have created is central to their approach.

Roots in The Sky, the radical reimagining of Blackfriars Crown Court into 385,000 sq ft of work, wellness and community space and a 1.1 acre urban forest on the roof has won a New London Award 2021 in the unbuilt category. 

The urban forest, designed by Harris Bugg Studio, will include over 100 established trees and 10,000 plants and will make a significant contribution to London’s ambitious targets for greening, biodiversity and sustainability.
