I came across these interesting and useful designs from Finland. They are made by the designers at Tonfisk.
The philosophy behind their design company is to create not just a product with a different shape, but a whole new idea. As stated, “Form follows function doesn’t mean all objects have to look the same” is built on Louis Sullivan’s functionalist dictum. However in spite of its cliché-status it describes best our design philosophy.”

The “KIIKKU” is this stepped garden or potted plant display. It lets you bring some color into your living room in a stylish and innovative way. Kiikku consists of a walnut wood ladder from which hang four easily removable flower pots.
The term Kiikku means “swing” in Finnish. It swings upward to display your flowers in a pretty arrangement. The pots could also be used to hold a herb garden or even the easy to care for succulents.
It looks like a simple idea that serves a good purpose for people who like to collect many potted plants. The idea is to create a stepped garden which could also be placed either indoor or outdoor. A great idea for those with limited space. Available at Unison. Photo from Unison.
