Bringing Greenery to the Table
November 18, 2012 by Robin Plaskoff Horton
I like the way international product design studio, Mermeladaestudio in Barcelona displays wit and sophistication with its paradoxical Trama table.
The table’s colorful powder-coated steel multifunctional base is both a planter and the table’s support, while its linear structure functions like a trellis, enabling vines to grow up toward the glass top.
I suppose you water it from the sides and can just lift the glass top off to replace the plant. Not yet in production, but I would like to see it produced. Comment below to weigh in on this one…

That is such a cool thing! As long as you get a plant that doesn’t attract any bugs..!
