Small Space: Big Impact

Forest Garden’stop tips for bringing big style to small spaces

Homeowners arelooking to transformthe most compact of outdoor spaces, according to new research from Forest Garden –the UK’sleading manufacturer and distributorof wooden garden products.

Using data from Pinterest, Forest Garden found searches soaring over the last monthfor ‘small garden’ terms, with ‘small back garden’ up 100%, ‘small city garden’ up 90% and ‘small garden design’ up 100%.

Jenny Davis, Head of Marketing for Forest Garden, said: “Homeowners aremaking use of every inch of their outdoor space. From vertical gardens packed with colourful blooms to cosy seating spaces nestled in the tiniest nooks, homeowners arelooking forclever solutions to maximise functionality and aesthetics in limited space”

Designing asmall garden

Less is moreinasmall garden but that doesn’tmean everything needs to be small. Alot of small elements can create avery cluttered feel, so you may be better offchoosing bigger moredominant features and planting to balance the space.

The sky’sthe limit

Think about growing plants on walls, training them upwards or hanging them from astructuresuch as trellis, our living screen planter (great for rental properties as it doesn’tneed to be fixedtoawall) or our vertical slatted wall planter

Multi-functional fixtures

Clever multi-purpose usage of areas is going to be the ideal situation. Aspace thatworks for two different purposes. Think about storage under bench seating rather than free-standing garden furniture. Raised beds or linear planters that can also act as dividers.

Forest Garden’sfold-down garden bar provides abrilliant entertaining space and when not in use can be folded away almost flush with the wall.

When it comes to small garden spaces and courtyardgardens, every choice and every inch counts. Applying key design principles can turn even the most compact courtyardinto a lush, inviting hideaway withfocal points leading the eye and space maximised through the use of vertical gardening.

POTR Pots

POTR designs and manufactures flatpack, self-watering planters made from waste, designed to be posted directly through your letterbox. Origami innovation is used to transformrecycled plastic into a sustainable, minimal pot engineered to take the guesswork out of plant careusing the inbuilt watering system which keeps your flora thriving.

The design of the plant pot has remained largely unchanged for five millennia with little thought going into its carbon footprint. POTR has embraced aholistic approach to sustainable design, resultinginaunique product range which places environmental impact at the coreofthe product design.

Alife cycle analysis of atraditional plant po was conducted, uncovering the carbon hotspots associated with the entireproduct lifecycle.Surprisingly,shipping was identifiedasamajor carbon footprint contributor with traditional plant pots due to shipping large, heavy and fragile volumes of air,often requiring single use protective wrapping. Manufactured in their thousands, these fragile objects requireexcess room on transportationwhich equates to high carbon footprints and expensive shipping costs.

This insight inspired the team to study origami, which led to the development of the flat-packed design, reducing the carbon footprint by over 100 times, eliminating wasted volume and weight. This also ensures easy deliveries through standard-sized UK letterboxes, and space optimisation in retail environments.

POTR Pots aremade from 0.5mm thick recycled polypropylene sheet which reduces material usage by an incredible 95% compared to traditional pots (often made from 10mm thick material). This reduction can be observed when weighing aPOTRPot (approx 100g) vs atraditional pot(approx 2kg). Whatsmore, our sheet material is made from waste polypropylene plastic destined for landfill helping contribute to acircular economy

Considering user needs, POTR integrated aself-watering system with areservoir in the pot’sbase, supported by a capillary action wicking cord. This innovation not only caters to busy lifestyles but also ensures plant longevity,reducing unnecessary wastage of houseplants and their associated carbon footprint.
