The tour will cover a range of different furniture pieces designed and made by Mike McMahon Studio and the various different techniques that we used to make them. This includes lightings, tables, chairs, sofas, beds and the cabinetry all which have been made by the owners.
The tour will also include the balconies which demonstrate what is possible from a modest sized central city elevated garden. The 'junglette' balconies contain a number of exotic plants including tree ferns and have a pond with native species. These were the inspiration behind Mike and Jewlsy's garden design for the RHS Chelsea Flower Show in 2024. These have been published in multiple publications and have appeared on the BBC Gardener's World TV programme.
