This Book Packaging Doubles as a Layered Flower Pot

Book packaging and flower pots, for the most part, have nothing in common. It just doesn't seem that there would be anything holding the two together in any way. Mexico-based design studio Manifiesto Futura decided that they would make a way for them to fit together.
This books packaging is beautiful on its own. It's simple but multi-layered, tactile and cleverly designed. Considering most books don't even come with packaging, this was already a step in the right direction. Manifiesto Futura took it a step even further though and made their book packaging multi-faceted.
For those of us who could always use an extra flower pot, this book cover will do the job. The packaging, when fully folded, will look like a sort of sack for soil and plants rather than a full ceramic pot. Being multi-faceted is always a good thing, and this book packaging flower pot certainly fills that description
