31/1/2018

Diarmuid Gavin won a very prestigious award in the category "Art at Work" at the Field Marketing and Brand Experience Awards in London recently. Some of Diarmuid's competitors were Rolls Royce, Cadburys, and JC Decaux.

Diarmuid's garden which was on display in Dundrum Town Centre was called the "Garden of Pure Imagination".

The garden is based on the Willy Wonka tune of the same name and it features immaculate conical trees, topiary balls and an elegant brick folly which sits in front of a sunken rectangular pond, and every 15 minutes, flowerbeds rise from the ground while trees twirl and a wooden shed comes to life full of cogs and gardening gadgets.

It was a fantastic success in Dundrum with people queueing up to see it.
