Beneath a Mexican Sky - Garden Creation

Inland Homes are proud sponsors of Beneath a Mexican Sky by Manoj Malde at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show 2017. BENEATH A MEXICAN SKY Beneath a Mexican Sky is an homage to the work of Mexican architect Luis Barragán. A generous courtyard is turned into an inviting and calm space. Barragán’s signature colour washed walls in clementine, coral and cappuccino provide dramatic back drops to the planting scheme. Zinc micro-cement steps floating across a large aquamarine pool often seen in Barragán’s work. He loved horses and often created a pool for them to cool off in. The spirit of the horse is included within the garden through a copper wire sculpture by Rupert Till. The garden applies a new thought process, using drought tolerant plants that merge Mediterranean style with country cottage planting. The garden is designed around two natural, mature multi-stem trees that provide structure in the garden. Agaves provide rhythm and softer drought tolerant herbaceous planting breathes beauty into the garden. Whilst Mediterranean plants are of personal interest to Manoj, their struggle to survive harsh conditions also represents Barragán’s struggle during his career to become a recognised architect.
