Winter is the ideal time to start delving into the garden trends of 2024. Zodat u meteen in de tuin aan de slag kunt wanneer de dagen weer langer en warmer worden. Bent u benieuwd welke ontwikkelingen er dit jaar centraal staan? En kunt u niet wachten om inspiratie op te doen? Lees dan snel verder.

We list the five most important garden trends of 2024 for you to once again create a wonderful place make your outdoor space a delightful place again this year.

1. Back to Nature

The main garden trend this year is the rediscovery of nature. Tight shapes are disappearing and life in your garden is taking more center stage. We are greening up and giving nature an increasing role within our garden.

Think more diversity in the type of plants, the way they are paved and the use of color tones. In addition to ornamental plants, we see more vegetables and herbs coming back. The vegetable garden in been popular for several years and remains so. Homegrown vegetables (despite the work) are just a little more fun to serve.

Tiles are replaced with wood chips, gravel or special permeable tiles. We create a natural look, keeping in mind butterflies, bees and birds. Your garden is alive! A big advantage of having quite a few plants and greenery in your yard is that it stays a lot cooler in the summer.

2. Choose sustainability

Sustainability is an increasingly important issue in many areas. So too in the garden industry. You can see this, for example, in the material choice, with sustainably grown wood and bamboo increasingly preferred by consumers. And also the trend to install solar panels

put on the roof to generate energy, we see it reflected in the garden. After all, with its own solar panel, the garden lights can also burn perfectly well on solar energy. An additional advantage is that you can place these lights flexibly, as long as the sun shines!

Garden owners are also increasingly thinking about how they can contribute to nature. After all, nature is getting less and less space in our country, so private gardens play a growing role in this. People are therefore increasingly opting for a garden with lots of greenery, so that insects can nest there and it is a nice place for birds.

3. Second-hand and recycled

In line with choosing sustainability in the garden, it is also increasingly important for many people to deal responsibly with materials and making future-proof choices. Garden furniture give a second life

is then a great option. Good for the environment as well as for your wallet. To do this, search online for second-hand offerings or visit thrift stores that offer outdoor furniture.

Making more responsible choices is also possible with the range of new furniture. For example, manufacturers are increasingly using recycled materials. Wij zien dit terugkomen bij diverse leveranciers terug in bijvoorbeeld een groter aanbod aan tuinmeubelen van gerecycled teak en outdoor kussens die zijn gemaakt van gerecyclede petflessen en polyester.

4. Designer garden furniture

Especially during the summer months, people often think of the garden as an extension of the living room. De tuindeuren gaan open en u geniet buiten van een lekkere maaltijd en fijn gezelschap. Dan kan het design van de tuinmeubelen natuurlijk niet achterblijven. Design betekent niet per se nieuw, er zijn genoeg bijzondere tweedehands sets te vinden. Ook zijn er diverse winkels die stijlvolle vintage meubels verzamelen voor een tweede kans.

Therefore, in 2024 there will be a shift from more basic garden furniture to beautiful designer garden furniture, in colors that match the rest of the garden. Quality products often have a longer lifespan! Furniture in subtle, warm colors such as green and brown are particularly in demand this year. Within the range of garden furniture, sustainable options are increasingly available.

More space for greenery means less room for terraces and other seating areas. Then it is extra important to organize the space you have as efficiently as possible. You do this, for example, by using multifunctional garden furniture: tables and chairs that you use for dining as well as relaxing, such as a low dining garden set.

And modular lounge sets also come into their own in 2024 as a result. You combine these (elements of) garden furniture yourself to create your ideal set and move them easily if you want to use them temporarily in a different way.

5. Organic forms

In the living room, we have seen sleek, angular lines give way to round and oval dining tables for a few years now. And this trend is now spreading to the garden as well. Back to nature with organic shapes, rounded corners and rounded legs.

The rectangular garden table no longer dominates the patio. The choice is increasingly falling on round rather than rigid shapes. En ook in de rest van de tuin zien we dit terug. Weg met de strakke tegels en rechte paden, uw tuin is tenslotte onderdeel van de natuur!

The garden trends of 2024 also in your garden!

Are you ready to get started on your garden? Then let the greenery run wild! Natural gardens are essential for the ecosystem, but also good for you.
