The possibility of establishing and tending to a [herb garden](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auk-mini) need not be thrown out the window the moment that you move into an apartment building. The [Garden House](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tane-garden-house) by Diletta Orlandi is an accessible solution to infusing your inner-city lifestyle with healthy serving of greenery.

The concept was dreamed up by the Acciuga Design designer and put to manufacturing by Galli & Morelli. Lenzi Egisto produces a crucial portion of the [tabletop flower bed](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/izestee) with a highly absorbent fabric that soaks up excess water for later use in the photosynthesis process. Metal is the primary material of the patio Garden House, forming a broad but shallow planter plus a tray, a dish and hooks for landscaping implements.
