Spring into Houseplants
Verticality: Story Planter from DWR
“We simply want to create things people won’t get rid of. It was not an easy task, though it appears really simple. We hope people see it as a quiet, functional sculpture.”
Story Planter saves valuable space by stacking up houseplants within a small footprint
Industrial minimism: Bau Pot from DWR
“Inspired by the uncluttered lines and industrial surfaces of Bauhaus architecture, the Bau Pot (2018) adds a sculptural modern twist to your porch or patio. This elevated pot brings attention to your beautiful blooms, and its corrugated steel construction makes it suitable for outdoor use.”
Lifting the pot on legs allows homeowners to save carpets and wood surfaces from moisture
Mid-century classic: Bullet Planter from Design Within Reach
“Produced by several companies in the 1950s, this piece was never trademarked, and its designer was never identified. A passionate collector of midcentury modern design and a fan of the original, Kelley Sandidge decided to create her own version of the Bullet Planter (2002) after her search for vintage ones in good condition proved mostly fruitless. Reimagined and trademarked by Sandidge, this rendition is precision-crafted using advanced production methods from lightweight yet durable molded fiberglass perched atop a tripod of powder-coated steel.”
Designed for plants, but the Bullet Planter can also be used to hold chilled drinks and other items
Roomy: Construct Planter from Design Within Reach
“I like to play with shapes. I cut up cones and cylinders and reassemble them in unexpected ways, creating new, fascinating shapes that are harmonious nonetheless.”
Construct Planter is made from papier mâché lined with fiberglass, with a shape roomy enough for plants
Shapely: Zig Zag Planter from Design Within Reach
“Use this playfully shaped, colorful planter to add even more character to your floral arrangements. Crafted from hand-glazed fiberglass for excellent durability, it’s suitable for indoor and outdoor use (drainage holes should be drilled in the base for outdoor use).”
The Zig Zag Planter comes in Ash, Pesto, Mustard, and White
Ohmmm: Serene Flowerpot from Design Within Reach
“Standing on a unique semicircular base and beautifully finished with a sand or red slip coating, the Serene Flowerpot is as beautiful without plants as it is with them. Available in four sizes, this vessel can also be used as a centerpiece on your dining table.”
Designed by Kristina Dam Studio, Serene Flowerpot adds sculptural asymmetry to any room
