Merry - Ribbed Modern Planter

A calm form for living growth

Where geometry meets earth.

Form No.13 — Merry
From the Motif Collection

Overview

This sculptural 3D-printed planter is designed as a balance between form and function. Its geometry is informed by natural erosion and architectural rhythm, creating a calm presence that complements both plant and space. Minimal yet expressive, this modern indoor planter is made to live quietly in your home while allowing the plant to take the lead.

Design Story

Form No.13 — Merry is part of a parametric family developed within the Twist Collection. Each form begins from the same underlying system, then diverges through controlled variations in proportion, curvature, and surface tension. Rather than pursuing absolute perfection, subtle irregularities are embraced — making every planter feel intentional and quietly unique.

Material & Making

This planter is 3D-printed in high-quality matte PLA using a slow, layered process. Fine layer lines remain visible as part of the surface texture — a subtle trace of the digital-to-physical transition. Each piece is produced in small batches and inspected by hand.

Collection

Motif Collection is built on repetition and order. A simple geometric unit is multiplied across the surface, creating rhythmic textures that feel architectural and precise. The pattern gives each piece a strong structure while remaining calm and minimal. Subtle variations in scale and density allow the same motif to express different characters—quiet, tactile objects shaped by logic, repetition, and restraint.
