Join Landscape Designer Tom Massey, Horticulturalist Sheila Das, Environmental Consultant and Educator Kalpana Arias, and Artist Alexandra Daisy Ginsberg in conversation with Assistant Curator of Public Practice Naomi Zaragoza to discuss the implications of AI technologies in garden design.
What to expect
Artificial Intelligence is permeating almost every industry in a quest for optimisation. This rapid expansion raises questions and concerns about associated risks and consequences across social, cultural, economic, political and environmental sectors.
Debates around AI as a tool in landscape design have been ignited by the announcement of the Avanade ‘Intelligent’ Garden, designed by Tom Massey Studio and Studio Weave for Chelsea Flower Show 2025 in partnership with Microsoft and Avanade UK. The Show Garden integrates AI technology to monitor and assess the soil and air quality, tracking changes and predicting future conditions to enable proactive, resource-efficient care. The project has stimulated discourse among designers, gardeners, and ecologists, who have divergent opinions about what this might mean for the future of horticultural practice and landscape design.
Join us for a constructive exchange, chaired by Assistant Curator of Public Practice and horticulturalist Naomi Zaragoza, that will address anxieties and interests about AI's role in the future landscape.
This is an event open for all design, ecology, technology and horticultural practitioners, researchers, students, educators, advocates, enthusiasts and anyone with an interest in AI, research and innovation.
