About
Designer Tom Massey explores how he harmonises monumental brutalist structures and hard landscaping with soft, ephemeral planting. This talk explores atmospheric contrasts—where concrete, steel and sculptural rock anchor biodiverse, delicate yet resilient schemes. In Tom’s designs, heavy and fragile, brutalist and ethereal coexist, creating immersive spaces that feel both powerful and poetic.
