# Runaway Appendage Planters The Escaping Flower Pot Uproots Greenery for Movement By Amelia Roblin | Published 2011-07-11 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/escaping-flower-pot References: [designspotter](http://www.designspotter.com/product/2011/07/Escaping.html) & [andersonhorta.blogspot](http://andersonhorta.blogspot.com/2011/07/escaping.html) Plants are living breathing creatures, but unlike animals, they are forever bound to a stationary base. Playfully, the Escaping Flower Pot allows greenery to indirectly sprout legs below its fixed roots, and run rampant around the room in which it is contained. Although I do love the creative's concept of a "fugitive plant that grow legs like in a cartoon, to escape from us giants," more likely than not, Anderson Horta's idea would actually remain immobile still if brought to life. It would, however, embrace the [lighthearted notion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/happy-plants) that its contents do store the type of energy to which humans can relate. Replicating the bottom half of a running 3D character, the Escaping Flower Pot is sure to make your [interior design more dynamic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ceramic-planters-1). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.2/10 - Popularity: 17% | Activity: 11% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Mobile Planters:** The trend of planters with legs that allow greenery to move and explore different spaces, adding an interactive element to interior design. - **Dynamic Interior Design:** The trend of incorporating elements like the Escaping Flower Pot that bring movement and energy to interior spaces, enhancing the overall aesthetic. - **Living Decor:** The trend of blurring the line between plants and decor, allowing plants to become a focal point and conversation starter in a space. ### Who This Affects Most - **Home Decor:** The home decor industry can take advantage of the trend by creating and marketing planters with legs as innovative and unique decor options for consumers. - **Furniture:** The furniture industry can explore incorporating planters with legs into their designs, creating multi-functional pieces that integrate plants and movement. - **Interior Design:** Interior designers can use planters with legs to add a playful and dynamic element to their projects, creating spaces that are both visually appealing and interactive. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Naturalistic Self-Watering Planters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apot-selfwatering-planter.md) - [Cult Film-Inspired Pet Plants](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spot-1.md) - [Illusory Planter Stands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rooted-planter.md) - [Multifunctional Plant Pots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/face-plant-planter.md) - [Futuristic Self-Watering Planters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-klaustrafloria.md) - [Self-Watering Plant Pots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vivo-pot.md) - [Vibrant Dynamic Wall Plant-Hangers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/floos.md) - [Digital Interaction Planters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/planta-planter.md) - [Building Block Gardening Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-planterior.md)
