This month’s Nicer Tuesdays is on the subject of nature, bringing together four talks from creatives who approach the subject in their own unique way.

Joining us is Je Ahn, founding director of Studio Weave, an award-winning architectural practice whose approach focuses on the joyful craft within their work, as well as Tom Murphy and Emma Sibley, co-founders of London Terrariums, an exciting new start-up who not only specialise in beautiful tiny ecosystems, but also teach people how to be green-fingered themselves.

Also joining us is Carol Montpart, co-founder and creative director of The Plant, a biannual publication aimed at lovers of all things botanical that explores the relationship between creatives and plants, as well as Katie Scott, a favourite in the It’s Nice That studio and illustrator of some of the most beautiful and intricate biological imagery we’ve seen in a long time, with clients such as New York Times, Urban Outfitters and Bombay Bicycle Club.

As ever the beers will be on us!
