botanical design with wayward plants london

Welcome to episode 59 of the green & healthy places podcast in which we explore the themes of wellbeing and sustainability in real estate and hospitality today.

This time around I’m in London talking to Tom Kendall, Associate Director of Wayward Plants, a London based landscape, art and architecture practice with a strong botanical bent.

Born and raised on a farm in Cornwall, Tom studied Architecture at the Bartlett School of Architecture (BSc) and the Royal College of Art (MA)

Our conversation covers their work creating biophilic public benches that convey a message about inner city air quality, large scale plant donations as an ethical business practice, designing botanically inspired playgrounds, their work designing a botanical memorial for Nelson Mandela in Liverpool and their nature-inspired sustainable interior concept for a Stella McCartney store.
