Hedgerow in the Sky - Tech Mahindra

The Hedgerow in the Sky garden reimagines the character and biodiversity of British hedgerows within a contemporary urban balcony garden. Layered planting echoes the natural structure of hedgerows, offering year-round interest and creating moments of discovery for both pollinators and people.

A striking, dark backdrop crafted using the traditional Shou Sugi Ban technique adds depth and contrast while delicate pressed-flower artworks celebrate the beauty and fragility of wildflowers. Comfortable seating invites quiet reflection and a gentle water feature introduces movement and tranquillity, transforming the balcony into a serene urban sanctuary.

Inspired by the designer's love of British hedgerows and concern for their decline, the garden encourages visitors to notice local wildlife and demonstrates how biodiversity can thrive even in limited outdoor spaces. It is a hopeful reminder that thoughtfully designed small spaces can nurture nature and create meaningful ecological impact.
