Since 2006, an eclectic mix of 70 visionary artists, cartoonists, fashion and interior designers, celebrity chefs and children from nine schools and even members of the Household Cavalry have helped to make Deckchair Dreams a reality. Together they have designed 81 original deckchairs that celebrate the trees, wildlife, and other rare and wonderful things of London's eight Royal Parks. They bring joy to the Parks and allow visitors to relax on works of art.

In 2010, Deckchair Dreams extended to include an educational exchange with Shanghai Botanical Garden in China which coincided with the World Expo in Shanghai. British and Chinese artists created designs based on a 'seed theme'. Their deckchairs were on display in The Royal Parks. The adventure also incorporated an educational programme in London and Shanghai - helping school children, plus a group of older people, explore the natural world and its portrayal through art.
