Somerset House

SOIL: The World at Our Feet

2025

Landmark exhibition for Somerset House exploring the importance of soil health and this under appreciated living ecosystem. Our sensitive design palette consisted of soil friendly compostable materials including hempcrete, biodegradable paint, seaweed paper, natural fabrics and timber, alongside reusable structures.

Pairing these materials with large-scale projected scenography, we explored how this increasingly fragile yet unparalleled layer of the biosphere is at odds with human's ability to hide and undervalue this incredible living matter.
