# Magnetized Flower Pots Kyung-Eun Oh Creates Planters That Could Stick to Fridges By Meghan Young | Published 2012-03-25 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kyung-eun-oh References: [neatorama](http://www.neatorama.com/2012/03/24/magnetic-planter/) & [dornob](http://dornob.com/pair-of-conversation-pieces-dual-sided-magnetic-flower-pot/) Fridges often host magnets that represent the hobbies of the homeowner, and Kyung-Eun Oh has created the ultimate magnet for gardeners and plant lovers. She has designed a flower pot with a magnetized side that fixes itself on any metal surface, and that includes fridges. Modeled after a traditional terracotta planter, Kyung-Eun Oh's flower pots have been cleverly halved to ensure that it stays stuck to such surfaces easier. The flat side can even be paired with another of Kyung-Eun Oh's special pots to give the illusion of being one planter that has somehow had a barrier put between it. Great for small spaces and smaller flower arrangements, this magnetized flower pot is cute and quirky. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.6/10 - Popularity: 50% | Activity: 80% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% 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 - **Magnetically Attached Planters:** Innovative planters that can be attached to any metal surface offer a new way to add greenery in small spaces. - **Modular Planters:** Designing planters that can be paired together to create larger arrangements could be a disruptive innovation for the gardening industry. - **Terracotta Planter Alternatives:** Creating planters with unique materials and shapes can appeal to modern, design-conscious consumers. ### Who This Affects Most - **Home Decor Industry:** Manufacturers of home decor items could explore creating planters and other garden-related products that appeal to a wider range of consumers. - **Gardening Industry:** Developing smaller, space-saving planters that still offer unique design features could be a game-changer for the gardening industry. - **Kitchen Appliance Industry:** Partnering with designers to create magnetic accessories for fridges and other kitchen appliances can offer customers greater utility, taking advantage of previously unused spaces. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Multifunctional Plant Pots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/face-plant-planter.md) - [Artful Seaweed-Inspired Bin Magnets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magnetic-edition.md) - [Uniquely Shaped Self-Watering Pots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/self-watering-plant-house.md) - [Space-Conscious Kitchen Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magnetic-kitchen-design.md) - [Vibrant Dynamic Wall Plant-Hangers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/floos.md) - [Building Block Wall Organizers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wall-organizer-and-messfree-planter.md) - [Virtual Pet Planter Pots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plant-pot-concept.md) - [Naturalistic Self-Watering Planters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apot-selfwatering-planter.md) - [Minimalist Indoor Gardening Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/balconyfarm-pot.md)
