Geometric and Gorgeous
The popularity of terrariums stems from their versatility. They have the ability to be curated into any type of design style and purpose, whether as an accent piece or a focal point, says Alexander McLachlin, owner of Nightshade, based in Ontario. He sees terrariums moving toward more thoughtful, artistic design, and he's even seen some with a single pad of moss or a sapling growing from a lichen-covered stick. The shape of the container can be as much a point of focus as the environment inside, he says, "geometry is also such a powerful visual statement".
