Tree grates are usually used to help trees and any of various shrubs, bushes, and plants integrate into the urban cityscape. Some of them are spotted on jonite.com, the collection below presents 30 ideas of tree grates design that provide space for the roots while allowing normal pedestrian traffic over the planting area. As you can easily notice, they are available in a variety of designs, shapes and sizes: from rectangular patterns to abstract combinations of lines and circles. Organic arrangements that look like vegetal networks or Lufa sponges are also on the trend at the moment. Some of the models use iron as a dominant material, but wood and stone are often preferred for their natural look. Moreover, Jonite’s tree grates design allow fully customisable light ports or sockets for the installation of many different types of lights. Thus, night illumination will add an appealing aspect to the natural beauty of trees.
