How do you add water stylishly to your garden?

To achieve a sleek and modern look, you can use border edges made of corten steel around your pond. Also, smaller water elements, such as water tables, are a nice option that you can subtly integrate into your garden.

Here are a few ideas for adding water stylishly to your garden:

Water tables in different parts of your garden

A steel water table is a versatile element that you can place in various parts of your garden.

  • By your seating area: the soothing sound of the water lets you enjoy your garden even more.
  • By your dining table: the gentle sound creates a relaxed atmosphere while dining.
  • Among your plants: the water table provides a playful contrast. The warm rust color of corten steel fits perfectly with the natural surroundings.

Border edges and retaining walls for your pond

Do you have a pond in your garden, or are you considering creating one? Border edges, such as corten steel border edges and corten steel retaining walls, give your pond a sleek and modern appearance.

Border edges are ideal for neatly defining your pond. They provide a clear separation between the water and the garden around it and keep the soil and plants tidy in their place, so your pond always looks well-maintained. Retaining walls are handy if you have differences in height in your garden or want to create a pond at a raised level.
