The Haisui Planter Container Highlights Nature's Resilience
Michael Hemsworth — September 15, 2016 — Art & Design
Looking like a shower drain that has sprouted a shrub, the Haisui planter container is designed to help highlight the resilient nature of plant life. Designed by the Mortar - Pull+Push design firm, the Haisui planter is handcrafted by Nobuhiro Sato and is intended to be placed on a desktop or anywhere else one desires.
When filled with soil, seeds and water, the Haisui planter will enable the sprouts to grow upward through the drain grates to show how a plant can overcome manmade obstacles. The Haisui planter container is crafted from concrete and a steel drain cover, and features a price tag of roughly $647.47 USD. This makes it a beautiful but pricy addition to a modern workstation.
