Bench Pot Illuminates Real House Plants

— December 24, 2007 — Art & Design
If you have a room that you want to decorate completely with ambient lighting but can't get enough illumination because of the size of the room, this Bench Pot is perfect. Using real plants is possible because the double wall design keeps the water from light. It emits a soothing soft glow on room and plants.

"It's this cool pot that can hold your house-plant and enhance its look by bathing it in a soft, soothing glow. You can install any color lamp that you want and create the perfect ambience. The good thing about this pot is that you place real plants in it and not opt for those lifeless, plastic ones."

Implications - The reemergence of psychedelic couture stems from a hunger for retro revival and an adapted sense of positivity, freedom and peace that is reminiscent of the classic hippie.
Trend Themes
1. Ambient Lighting - Developing lighting products, such as the Bench Pot, that can create ambient lighting and elevate a room’s mood and appearance using real house plants.
2. Eco-friendly Home Decor - Creating sustainable and environmentally-friendly home decor products, such as the Bench Pot, that can enhance the appearance of an indoor environment and have functional uses as well.
3. Smart Home Gardening - Developing IoT-based and smart home products that can make house plant care easier, such as the Bench Pot, by combining plant health monitoring sensors with ambient lighting design.
Industry Implications
1. Home Decor - Home decor companies can leverage the popularity of eco-friendly and sustainable products, such as the Bench Pot, that can enhance room ambiance and have functional uses as well, by integrating IoT sensors and smart features.
2. Lighting - Lighting companies can disrupt the home decor market by designing ambient lighting products, such as the Bench Pot, that can integrate with other smart home features and provide value beyond mood-enhancement purposes.
3. Gardening - Companies selling indoor gardening products and house-plant care products, such as the Bench Pot, can innovate and disrupt the market by integrating IoT sensors with their products, making indoor gardening more engaging and intuitive.
