# Puddle-Imitating Minimal Vessels Naoki Ono and Yuki Yamamoto Create the Puddle Series By Amy Duong | Published 2024-07-25 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/puddle-series References: [yankodesign](https://www.yankodesign.com/2024/07/23/ikebana-vessel-looks-like-a-puddle-of-water-with-a-flower-sprouting-out-of-it/)  Designers Naoki Ono and Yuki Yamamoto created the Puddle series which is comprised of a range of [vessels or vases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gourd-project) that reflect the look of puddles as the namesake suggests. This is a concept design and there is only a limit to the amount of flowers that it is able to hold. The body's structure is made to look like different [water puddle patterns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/puddle-pavilion) and when the flower is placed on it, it appears to be sprouting from the middle. It has a clear body and the walls are about 1.55 m in height, which is enough to have a cup of water, and the small needle in the middle holds a [single plant stem](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rila-vases).
