The Fern is one of the most comfortable, dynamic seats on the market. It’s also a sculptural piece of art.

The Fern is a revolution in furniture design.
The ergonomic profile, combined with individually sculpted curved wooden ‘leaves’ provide perfect, uniform support for your body, allowing you to rest in total comfort. In fact, The Fern has been dubbed as one of the most comfortable unpadded seats on the market.

“It looks beautiful, but to sit in it is something else!”

The real highlight is the way The Fern moves organically, as if it were a real plant.
It’s unique, single spine design allows the seat to flex in a multi-directional way, giving the user an immersive seating experience, one that feels almost as if the seat is actually alive!

“It’s like you’re sitting into the garden itself, incredible.”

The Fern is designed by world-renowned garden designer Joe Francis and
featured as the main focal point of his award-winning show garden
“Calm Amidst Chaos”, which won the Silver-Gilt medal at RHS Hampton Court Garden Festival 2019.

“The response to The Fern has blown me away,” says Joe, “I wanted to design a seat that helped people to connect with nature, as well as to connect with that deeper sense of peace we all have within us. The reaction from everyone who sits in it has been incredible. The process of developing the design has been challenging yet hugely rewarding, and I feel honoured to be able to make it available for others to enjoy.”

Everyone should own a Fern seat. The seat is very stylish, looks amazing and is incredibly comfortable. I am so happy with my Fern seat.

We’ve been looking for something special to sit on
top of a mound in our garden, this beats everything else
we’ve seen by far.

For every Fern we make, we protect 10 square meters of the Borneo rainforest.

Made possible through our lifetime partnership with the global initiative B1G1 Business for Good.

For every 10 Ferns sold, we donate a Fern to a high-impact project.

The first, flagship Fern went to Maytree house, which provides a sanctuary for people in a suicidal crisis. The next Fern is going to The Mulberrybush School - a school for children who have experienced extreme trauma.

A portion of each sale goes to supporting the Eliminating Loneliness project.

Eliminating Loneliness is the next show garden designed by Joe and is a blueprint for creating a ‘green hub’ for local communities. The concept being that by creating a place where people can come together through the common theme of gardens, people will feel less isolated and alone - something that too many of us experience in this day and age.

*The sketch to the left is a preliminary layout of the show garden, more exciting plans to follow soon!

 Each Fern is individually handmade, meaning typical lead times to build and deliver one is around 3-4 weeks. To secure your order, simply click the button below to fill out some basic details, we’ll then get in touch and set up your order ready for delivery.
