Self-Watering Plant Pots

The Vivo Pot by Ivan Zhurba Functions as a Desk Light and Decor

— November 23, 2022 — Art & Design
Ivan Zhurba designs the new Vivo pot, which functions as much more than just a plant pot -- it also works as a beautiful desk lamp or simply as a piece of home decor. It has a sleek design and smart features including self-watering capabilities to keep the plants healthy and beautiful.

It requires little to no involvement from users as the maintenance is entirely taken care of with the COB LEDs, which is a chip-on-board. When the pot is not used or holding a plant, it is able to close up. This creates a structure that resembles the look of an egg with curved grooves around the body to create a dynamic look that is perfect as a piece of decor.
