From the countryside to the cities, people are transforming their balconies and gardens into their very own functional oases. Privacy screens and automatic irrigation systems are in particularly high demand in 2025.
«Many of our customers live in rented apartments, where systems like these are a real game changer,» says Murat Circi. «Once you install them, they run automatically – even while you’re away on your summer holiday.»
The roundup: little spaces have a lot of potential
Outdoor trends for 2025 show that balconies are becoming more functional, more sophisticated and more unique. Instead of splashing out on a large furniture set, many customers are investing in compact, smart technologies instead. «If you only have a little outdoor space, you want to make the most of it and use it for relaxation, plant care and a bit of alone time,» says Murat Circi.
What have you bought for your balcony in 2025? Are there any essentials you haven’t snapped up yet?
