Your average garden trellis is not meant to be seen. It is one of those garden accessories designed to be covered with plants. Its the structure a climbing plant requires to create a green wall. We put up with this (often ugly) trellis whilst waiting for plants to establish.
But if you can change your attitude to the trellis and see it as a design opportunity it can add to the contemporary garden aesthetic and contribute to a garden design even without the plants.
A contemporary interpretation of the garden trellis has been developed by European designers Flora. They have created five designs that allow climbing plants to weave amongst abstract garden wall art.
The affect of the metal trellis is enhanced when panels are joined to create a large pattern of negative and positive space. Just add plants to the composition and we have created a living wall art piece.
Love the first metal art design. Very Cool.

This is lovely – very unusual. Working in small space gardens, i always need to make use of the vertical space as much as the avaiable floor space and these alternative trellis would do just the job. I can see us using these in the future at Earth Designs http://www.earthdesigns.co.uk.
“They have created five designs that allow climbing plants to weave amongst abstract metal wall art” – what do you mean??
Hey thanks mike for point this out – - it made no sense – i am still updating my web pages
Impressive design! I never thought this would made a great wall art. I think this will add a unique style to anywhere it may be in our home, it makes that location stand out and be easily noticed by those looking for keen detail in their surroundings.
Decorating a room or office space with metal art can be a great opportunity to make a statement while defining a room’s personality. Consider whether you want the metal wall art to pop out as a focal point or just use it as an accent piece in the room.
