Milan Furniture preview: the conceptual planter has arrived

Yet another great design : on Design Boom

' italian designer joe velluto has designed 'space saving vase' for plust collection.
it will be on display as part of the 'plasticism' exhibition at spazio rosanna orlandi
during milan design week 09.

velluto's design poses the question are you a bottle or a vase? in a sarcastic
exchange of roles, 'saving space vase' undertook a pressure process as it came
out of the mould. the concept imitates that of pressing a PET bottle.

PLUST Collection presents a new approach based on manufacturing processes
and innovative finishes derived from the moulding of plastic with changes,
transformation and renewal as core matters.' Vase03

DS say: 'The first collaboration with Serralunga for Aquilialberg begins with Swing-UP, an innovative and versatile flower pot, pouf and side-table.


The research study of Aquilialberg is expressed in the development of an innovative stackable pot, where a single module, because of its controlled geometry, could be stacked, thus evolving in space in a sinuous and calibrated plastic torsion expanding its dynamism in space, both vertically and horizontally.

Designer: AquiliAlberg (Italy)
Manufacturer: Serralunga (Italy)
