Most planters focus more on function, which is only natural considering that it is the plants they hold that should take front and center; yet CELLA by ecoid, a design studio based in Boston, Massachusetts, is one that is able to stay out of the limelight in a stylish way. CELLA by ecoid takes on a skeletal frame that allows even more greenery to pop out, which is great considering it is meant for moss and other small plants.
Made out of a flexible, lightweight plastic, CELLA by ecoid is versatile. It can be used indoors or outdoors and can either be mounted on the wall or on a flat surface in a group and alone.
