Green fingers but not much space?

Hi, I am Orto Urbano

WHAT IS AN ORTO URBANO KIT

Orto Urbano is a practical solution for creating a mobile “urban garden” to place on apartment balconies and terraces.

Orto Urbano makes it possible for anyone to cultivate their own vegetable garden or green space completely independently, even without a garden.

Orto Urbano is easy to assemble; it comes in three pieces usually used for packaging and shipping kits.Mai pensato ad un orticello sul balcone?

Orto Urbano standard is available in three sizes:

  • Orto Urbano SMALL, with internal measurements 80x60cmx20h, for 100 Lt of soil
  • Orto Urbano LARGE, with internal measurements 120x80cmx20h, for 190 Lt of soil
  • Orto Urbano MAXI, with internal measurements 120x100cmx20h, for 240 Lt of soil

The components used to build the Orto Urbano are:

  • 1 pallet in pinewood
  • 1 collapsible wall in pinewood
  • 1 base in perforated plywood
  • 1 TNT sized bag

Orto Urbano is a very versatile kit-system: the walls are stackable, which means you can grow any kind of plant, depending on
your taste and requirements, making Orto Urbano an excellent alternative to a garden.

Orto Urbano is a patented system and registered name 11/2013

How does it work? It’s very easy!

Assembling your Orto Urbano really is as easy as pie.

1. position the pallet
2. open out the walls, following the guides
3. position the walls on the pallet
4. place the base on the pallet

 

What do you want to plant?

Orto Urbano is your domestic garden. The big castors allow you to move your Orto Urbano to whichever position you want – in the sun, in the rain, or in the shade, depending on what you decide to cultivate. The wheels also help keep the area round your domestic garden clean and allow water to flow better during watering.

Have fun inventing new floral compositions, sowing herbs and planting small vegetables. It’s time to enjoy the fruits of the earth that you’ve grown yourself in your Orto Urbano.

This is a photo of the final version of the orto urbano created by Lia in the Small and Large versions.
Alessandro and Massimo are the two brothers who designed a domestic system for creating an ORTO URBANO, working it out and developing it following their mother Lia’s advice that you use a garden, not look at it…

From here came the idea to produce Orto Urbano on a large scale, to give anyone who so wanted or needed, the chance to create a garden on their balcony without having the need for a garden or a piece of land.
