Chris and Mark set out to create an evening arbour from Perspex and timber for the north London garden belonging to Natasha Huggins and her eight-year-old son, Jared. This garden structure's use of materials is quite original and involves the creative talents of Perspex artist Linda West who produces original three-dimensional architectural work in Perspex.

Inspiration Station:

Perspex, acrylics and glass have become the materials of choice for garden designer and Chelsea Flower Show medallist Allison Armour-Wilson. The team visit Allison at her eight-acre garden in West Sussex to discuss her creative use of materials especially in the fabulous Perspex summerhouse, acrylic chaise longue and rowing boat which floats on the lake surrounding her own garden.

Allison's garden can be visited by appointment at Baldhorn's Park, West Sussex. Tel: (01293) 871 575.
