Creating Stylish Privacy with Artificial Green's GRP Planters and Pothos Screens in Central London

In a bustling city like central London, finding ways to blend style with practicality in outdoor spaces is key. The team at Artificial green recently addressed this need when supplying a residential development with a smart and stylish solution. Using planters supplied by www.vertigreen.co.uk, we crafted bespoke GRP planters in a sophisticated matte RAL 7016 finish, paired with hand-tied artificial UV-stable pothos garlands. These planters and garlands are attached to a 5mm powder-coated galvanised steel mesh, forming attractive privacy screens that suit urban living perfectly, whilst offering super durability.


Modern GRP Planters in Matte RAL 7016

Sourcing custom GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic) planters from vertigreen.co.uk meant that we could use highly durable planters designed to withstand the demands of urban outdoor environments. The lightweight, yet, strong planters were easy to handle when moving through the confines of the property and manageable when positioning on ledges some 3.6m off the ground.

The matte RAL 7016 finish offers a modern, neutral look that fits seamlessly into the scheme. It's a versatile shade that matches various architectural elements, adding a touch of refinement without overwhelming the overall aesthetic. These planters do more than just house plants; they serve as a sophisticated design element in their own right.


Low-Maintenance Greenery with UV-Stable Pothos Garlands

Bringing greenery into city spaces can greatly improve the environment, but keeping live plants in top shape isn’t always practical. That's why, anlong with the client, we opted for UV-stable artificial pothos garlands, which are both realistic and low-maintenance. These hand-tied garlands are made to handle outdoor conditions while staying vibrant throughout the seasons. They provide the lush, green appearance of real plants without any of the usual upkeep like watering or pruning.

In some locations the planters were fixed to ledges 3.6m off the lower ground floor, meaning maintenance of live plants would be extremely difficult. By using high quality artificial plants in this location we could avoid passing on a stressful maintenance job to the new owners and with only a few hours of sunlight in the various courtyards due to neighbouring tall buildings, using durable artificial planting rather than the real thing also removed the stress of constantly needing to replant live plants that would find the conditions difficult.


Functional Privacy with Galvanised Steel Mesh

Urban living often requires creative solutions for privacy. By using of 5mm powder-coated galvanised steel mesh not only does the mesh panel serve as a sturdy support for the pothos garlands but also adds an industrial-chic touch to the overall design. The combination of the steel mesh and the lush greenery creates a screen that’s not just functional but also visually appealing. It offers residents the privacy they need without compromising on style.

Enhancing City Living with Smart Design

This central London project is a prime example of how we can combine aesthetics and functionality. By using bespoke GRP planters, durable artificial pothos garlands, and robust galvanised steel mesh, we created a privacy screen that also enhances the outdoor space. It’s a smart solution for city dwellers who want to enjoy their private green spaces without the hassle of maintaining live plants. These installations serve as more than just practical elements; they act as design features that bring a touch of greenery into the urban environment.
