Corten steel, this unique metal material, is gradually becoming the new favorite of garden design with its unique rust beauty and durability.

It can be a simple straight line or an artistic curve; it can be a towering barrier or a low fence.

1. Corten Steel Screens Create Partitions

 

• Clear Functional Zoning: Use corten garden screen panels to divide the garden into different functional areas, such as leisure areas, planting areas, dining areas, etc. For example, set up a leisure area in a corner of the garden, place lounge chairs and coffee tables, and use a metal garden screen to separate it from the area where flowers and vegetables are planted. This not only ensures the independence of each area, but also does not give people a feeling of small space, and can make the garden layout more regular and orderly.

 

• Create Spatial Hierarchy: Use metal privacy screens of different heights and shapes to increase the spatial hierarchy of the garden. You can set up higher fences around the garden as boundaries, and use shorter fences when dividing small areas inside. For example, use a higher corten steel fence to separate the garden from the outside road, and use a short fence inside the garden to divide the planting areas of different flowers. From a distance, the high and low fences form a rich visual hierarchy.

2. Screens as Plant Support and Background

 

• Plant Climbing Frame: Corten steel garden screen panels can be used as climbing supports for vines. Choose some climbing plants such as roses, trumpet creepers, morning glories, etc., and let them grow along the corten steel fence. Over time, the plants will grow lush branches and leaves, covering the fence, forming a vibrant green barrier, which not only beautifies the fence, but also adds a natural breath and romantic atmosphere to the garden.

 

• Sets off the color of plants: The unique rust-red color of corten steel is a good background color that can highlight the colors of various plants in the garden. Plant colorful flowers in front of the fence, such as yellow sunflowers, purple lavender, red roses, etc. The rust-red fence and the colorful flowers set off each other, forming a strong visual contrast, making the garden more colorful.

3. Integrate Into the Entrance and Passage Design

 

• Garden entrance sign: At the entrance of the garden, use corten steel fences to create a unique entrance sign. The fence can be designed in the shape of an arch with the name of the garden or some meaningful patterns engraved on it. The texture and color of corten steel can leave a deep first impression, making the garden entrance more eye-catching and attractive.

 

• Guide the direction of the passage: Metal privacy screens are set along both sides of the garden passage to guide people's walking direction. The height and spacing of the fences can be adjusted according to the width of the passage and design requirements. At the end or corner of the passage, some unique landscape elements, such as sculptures, potted plants, etc., can be set to echo the corten steel fence, so that people can constantly find surprises while walking, increasing the fun and exploration of the garden.

 

4. Screens with Lighting and Water Features

 

• Built-in Light Strips in the Fence: Install light strips inside the corten steel fence. When night falls, the light strips light up, outlining the outline of the fence and creating a warm and romantic atmosphere. This lighting method is not only beautiful, but also provides some lighting for the garden path.

 

• Top-hanging chandeliers: Hang a chandelier at intervals above the garden fence, such as a retro-style lantern lamp or a modern and simple spherical lamp. These chandeliers can provide sufficient light for the garden and also become a beautiful landscape in the garden.

 

• Surrounding the Swimming pool or Pond: Installing a corten steel fence around the swimming pool or pond in the garden can not only play a role in safety protection, but also complement the waterscape. The rust red of the corten steel contrasts sharply with the blue of the water, creating a unique visual effect.

 

• Create a flowing water fence: Design a special trough or pipe on the metal privacy screen to let the water flow along the fence, forming a unique flowing water landscape. Small pools or pools can be set under the water flow to circulate the water, increasing the agility and fun of the garden.

5. Screens use Light and Shadow Effects

• Hollow pattern projection: Design some hollow patterns on the metal privacy screen, such as stars, flowers, geometric figures, etc. When the sun shines, these hollow patterns will form a unique projection on the ground. As time goes by and the position of the sun changes, the shape and size of the projection will also change. At night, using lights to shine from behind the fence, you can also project beautiful light and shadow patterns on the ground or wall, adding a sense of fun and mystery to the garden.

• Light and shadow barrier: Design the corten steel fence into a staggered multi-layer structure so that light can produce rich light and shadow changes when passing through the fence. Some sparse plants can be planted in the gaps of the fence, allowing light to pass through the gaps between the plants and the fence to form a mottled light and shadow effect. When people walk in the garden, they seem to be in a dream space where light and shadow are intertwined.
