Grown on Me by After Architecture doubles as a table and a planter. Ideal for all plant lovers, this table allows users to integrate houseplants seamlessly into furniture. After Architecture's goal is to create human interaction with plants into one symbolic and harmonious system.
The plants find their home in the table's cylindrical legs, which also support the square tabletops. For a modular design, the tabletops pivot to create non-traditional seating layouts and accommodate various space configurations. As technology moves society farther away from the natural world, the design company seeks to bridge the gap with its innovative product. Described as scaffolding for human and plant life, the table gives houseplants a central role in the home.
