A Contemporary Sculptural Wooden Planter

The Wycliffe™ is a distinctive contemporary wooden planter, defined by its stepped horizontal form and strong architectural silhouette.

Created exclusively for Oxford Planters in 2007 by Anthony Paul of Anthony Paul Landscape Design, its progressively offset lines create depth, shadow and a sculptural quality that changes when viewed from different angles.

The Wycliffe™ works particularly well within contemporary gardens, entrances, terraces and courtyards, either individually, as a matching pair or repeated through a larger landscape.

Designed for Contemporary Landscapes

Strong geometry and considered proportions make the Wycliffe™ particularly suited to clipped topiary, architectural shrubs and specimen planting.

We make each Wycliffe™ individually to order, considering its proportions and engineering in relation to the intended planting, anticipated load and architectural setting.

Commission the Wycliffe™ individually, as a matching pair or in alternative proportions to suit the planting and architectural setting.

    Explore the Wycliffe™ in contemporary garden and architectural settings, showing its distinctive stepped form with different planting schemes and finishes.

    Form, Shadow and Perspective

    The Wycliffe™ changes subtly according to viewpoint. Its offset horizontal lines create depth and shadow, while the overall form remains balanced and architectural.

    This makes the design particularly effective where it can be viewed from several directions, allowing its sculptural geometry to become part of the surrounding architecture and landscape.

    Oak, Iroko or Accoya™

    We make the Wycliffe™ in Oak, Iroko or Accoya™, with each timber giving its sculptural form a different character.

    Oak and Iroko emphasise the natural grain and can be left to weather over time. Accoya™ provides excellent dimensional stability and is particularly suited to a precise painted finish, where colour can further emphasise the Wycliffe™’s stepped geometry.

    Behind its distinctive form, we engineer each planter for its dimensions and anticipated planting load, providing the strength required for substantial planting and long-term exterior use.
