LONDON – This Humid House (THH), a botanical design studio based in Singapore and Paris, makes its debut at the prestigious RHS Chelsea Flower Show with Tabula Rosa, a new site-specific installation. Presented in the Creative Spaces category, the project marks the first time a studio from Asia has been invited to exhibit in this segment of the show.

Selected by invitation, Creative Spaces is Chelsea’s most open-ended category—free from the constraints of traditional show garden formats or fixed themes. It celebrates innovation in spatial and botanical expression. This year’s cohort includes New York florist Emily Thompson and the London-based duo Wagner Kreusch and Frida Kim, alongside THH.

For Singapore’s creative and botanical communities, THH’s inclusion represents a significant milestone—placing a Southeast Asian voice on one of the world’s most visible platforms for design, horticulture, and ecological storytelling.

The invitation follows THH’s first prize win at Festival Flora 2024 in Córdoba, Spain—the world’s leading event for contemporary floral art—where the studio’s immersive courtyard installation was praised for its bold ecological vision and multispecies storytelling.

Tabula Rosa reflects our belief that landscapes are never neutral—they carry the weight of memory, power, and possibility,” says John Lim, Founder and Creative Director of This Humid House. “In a time of ecological uncertainty, it asks what new worlds might take root through both collapse and creativity.”
