Intricate Honeycomb Espaliers

The Ariane Modular Trellis Artificially Encourages Organic Growth

— September 10, 2012 — Art & Design
Squint a little and it looks like these lovely climbing boughs have made their elegant meandering journeys on their own accord. A closer look, however, will reveal the subtle presence of the Ariane Modular Trellis, which is the catalyst behind the particular forms that have arisen.

Designer Emilie Colin Garros won a young talent prize for this concept within Jardins Jardin this year. It is a relatively minimal piece with the great potential to give gardeners control and turn their plants into living sculptures.

Each unit has the simplified anatomy of a snowflake. It's flat with a loosely hexagonal theme to its asymmetrical branches that makes it easy to tack them up on exterior walls in any odd arrangement. With a tiny bit of training for the climbers, the Ariane Modular Trellis will help you shape your vertical landscape.
Trend Themes
1. Modular Trellis Gardening - The trend of using modular trellises to shape vertical landscapes using minimal pieces and giving gardeners more control.
2. Organic Growth Sculpting - The trend of using trellises as catalysts for organic growth and turning plants into living sculptures.
3. Hexagonal Asymmetrical Designs - The trend of using hexagonal asymmetrical designs to allow for odd arrangements to be easily tacked up on exterior walls.
Industry Implications
1. Gardening - Innovative trellises are poised to disrupt the gardening industry, particularly in shaping vertical landscapes and turning plants into living sculptures.
2. Home Decor - Trellises with hexagonal asymmetrical designs have the potential to disrupt the home decor industry by allowing for unique wall displays with organic plant growth.
3. Architecture - Modular trellises used as catalysts for organic growth have the potential to disrupt the architecture industry, particularly in incorporating living sculptures into building designs.
