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.

The Ariane Modular Trellis Artificially Encourages Organic Growth
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.
