The Morgan Stanley Garden for the NSPCC

Morgan Stanley returns for their fourth year with Chris Beardshaw to create ‘The Morgan Stanley Garden for the NSPCC’. As with previous collaborations, the design reflects Morgan Stanley's long-term commitment to the wellbeing of children, with this year's design aiming to raise awareness of the work of the NSPCC, the Firm's current charity partner.

The design is intended to act as a metaphor for the emotional transformation that takes place in a child as they experience the positive impact of the NSPCC's work, in their fight for every childhood. At the start of the garden the direction of the path is unclear as it moves through the richly planted woodland.

There is a bespoke cedar wood pavilion, enclosed at the rear by a calm and reflective pool. Looking out from the pavilion the garden provides a safe, secure and rich sensory environment.

Planting includes large specimen trees, woodland and acid loving woodland specimens with subtle foliage textures, greens and splashes of velvety blues, pinks and purples.
