Exterior trends for 2022 for your balcony, terrace or rooftop

February 2, 2022

Plants are now more popular than ever before so you might be considering giving your terrace, rooftop area or exterior areas a transformation to include lots of lush, gorgeous greenery.

At Benholm Group we can help you create super spaces, and we can keep it looking great to give you that wow factor.

We’ve picked a variety of design trends that are predicted to be huge this year. Let us help you make the most of your outdoor space and make 2022 your best year.

Maximising space

Making spaces work harder to maximise all space available is a current trend when it comes to practicality and productivity. 2022 is the year to celebrate small green spaces and we can get creative as balcony, terrace and rooftop gardens are booming when it comes to design trends. Planters can be provided on casters so that they can be truly flexible to your needs for your spaces. This trend will also see stackable planting, cascading window boxes and hedging to create separate balcony zones becoming more and more popular. Plants are beneficial however small the space.

Green walls

Don’t just think about the floor. Try a living or artificial wall to green up any spaces and enhance your spaces visual appeal. Our green walls make a great focal point on a balcony or terrace, and they can be used as a selfie backdrop for your customers or visitors. Living walls also naturally purify the air in your space and they can attract wildlife so they’re ideal for busy cities.

Sustainability

A very popular trend for 2022 will continue to be emphasis on the planet and designs that impact the planet positively. This will include using natural materials such as ceramic and coloured glass planters or planting a tree. We can show you that great designs do not need to damage the environment. We can all do our part when it comes to sustainability and making small changes can really help to benefit the planet and reduce your carbon footprint.

Supersized planters

Go large with pots and planters. Use our statement pots to give you a gorgeous focal point, a defining feature and to really enhance the sense of greenery. If you’re thinking about new planters, then think big! The bigger the better then we can fill them with glorious, lush greenery to create a space that can really be enjoyed.

Gardens for peace of mind

Creating somewhere to enjoy moments of stillness is important to boost mindfulness and mental wellbeing. Being surrounded by beautiful plants is the ultimate form of stress relief and that’s exactly what’s needed as we head into the third year of the COVID-19 pandemic. Studies show that being in nature can have a positive effect on our mental health and wellbeing. Plants provide comfort in uncertain times and create a peaceful environment. We can work with you to design outdoor spaces that provide a place to retreat.

At Benholm Group we can also provide you with parasols, barriers, banners, and you could even get a brand to contribute as a sponsor. You can have a look at our outdoor dining page for some ideas: www.benholm.com/outdoor-dining/
