Book packaging and flower pots, for the most part, have nothing in common. It just doesn't seem that there would be anything holding the two together in any way. Mexico-based design studio Manifiesto Futura decided that they would make a way for them to fit together.
This books packaging is beautiful on its own. It's simple but multi-layered, tactile and cleverly designed. Considering most books don't even come with packaging, this was already a step in the right direction. Manifiesto Futura took it a step even further though and made their book packaging multi-faceted.
For those of us who could always use an extra flower pot, this book cover will do the job. The packaging, when fully folded, will look like a sort of sack for soil and plants rather than a full ceramic pot. Being multi-faceted is always a good thing, and this book packaging flower pot certainly fills that description
