Laser cut plastic canopy for Chelsea flower show

Jo wanted to use a new technology to produce the sculptural petal forms for her canopy. Each petal was cut from 1mm thick polypropylene and 1.5mm birch plywood at differing scales.

The canopy was designed for the award winning garden designer Jo Thompson for the Thrive charity garden at the Chelsea Flower Show. The garden won a gold medal.

You can make many decorative items including: decorative panels, fretwork, cladding and shade.
