Australian designer Adam Goodrum added the Trace Planter to the Trace collection that he created for design studio Tait last year. The original Trace collection is comprised of a series of outdoor lounge furniture pieces, and the new Trace Planter joins the group. The planter piece takes on a rectangular structure and is crafted from a series of [powder-coated aluminum boxes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aluminum-outdoor-furniture) that hold up the signature Trace tube form and net design, which makes it a natural extension to the Trace series.

Every Trace Planter is designed to [hold pots within its structure](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tetra-pak-and-keter) or prepares for plants to be planted right in them. The stainless steel mesh provides a foundation of support for [climbing plants to grow upon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tilt-planter). The pieces are available in two different width options and four colorways: 'Deep Ocean', 'Headland', 'Surfmist' and 'Nightsky.'
