Arbours

Variety Of Styles To Suit
One of the best traits of an arbour is the fact that there is almost no limit to the artistry and creativity that can be expressed in their design. This can be showcased not only through the style of the arbour’s planter box and attachment brackets themselves but also through the choice in foliage that is used. Curtains of foliage trailing down from an arbour are sure to wow as the garden ages and evolve – a truly ever-changing feature installation.

Flexibility For Your Needs
Arbours offer a huge amount of flexibility due to their very lightweight and range of plant types that you can use in them. They can feature as a statement piece and focal point of a balcony as part of a balustrade. They can provide strips of greenery on a standard roof mounted like a solar panel. With a range of shapes, these can be used to create suspended gardens or artistic shapes of greenery.

Adding Value In A Myriad Of Ways
An arbour is a great feature to add to elevate your building to another level as it brings with it a sense of style and landscaping. Including one as part of your building structure that is designed as an ecologically sustainable garden will enhance your property and add value to it for the life span of the garden.

Biodiversity Benefits
Arbours are often planted with a range of plant species creating an ecology as insects and birds are attracted to them. This biodiversity has a huge benefit to an urban landscape by bringing nature back into the city.

Green Columns

Bringing Nature Into Artificial Spaces
One of the most attractive aspects for green columns is that it brings life and nature into typically artificial spaces creating what is often termed “living architecture”. It’s a relatively new trend in the context of modern architecture and is a great way of breathing new life into work, home and recreational spaces, often creating a space of multi-use in a single place.

Aesthetic Appeal
“Living columns” are very rare and seeing a thriving one is going to make your space standout and be easily remembered.

Relaxing Atmosphere
Thanks to numerous studies, it is now an established fact that plants help alleviate the stress of people in and around them. So, having plants in gardens in, on and around the buildings that you live, work and recreate in increases everybody’s sense of well-being. Shopping malls, offices, gyms, and sports facilities are often places that have high stress and energy levels. Gardens in these places where they are ecologically sustainable and memorable go a long way to reducing the negative effects of stress.

Improved Air Quality
Air quality within an enclosed space always has the potential to become staler through poor circulation, overcrowding, indoor air pollutants etc. The foliage of the green columns naturally absorbs carbon dioxide and volatile organic compounds in the air releasing oxygen providing a much healthier atmosphere resulting in better health and wellbeing outcomes for all.
