Made from recycled materials, Maruja Fuentes’ green pockets give new meaning to the term “houseplant.”
Spotted at the
2009 Milan Furniture Fair, the super-cool ceramic tiles attach to any wall to create the illusion that whatever’s inside—
herbs,
plants, a flower or two—is growing directly out of a room’s surface.
It’s the ultimate marriage of form and function: The pockets bring a
soul-soothing dose of greenery and nature to an
interior space, improving a room’s aesthetic
and air quality.
