Contemporary vase HIDDEN

In 2011, Rotterdam-based designer Chris Kabel developed the hidden vases project for the Spanish The Plant Journal (now The Plant).This project started as a research on how to make a vase disappear, based on the way a chicken waterer works. The flowers are placed around the water container, so it seems like they are growing directly from the plate,” Chris Kabel explains. "I wanted it to appear invisible, but it became an autonomous object that maintains itself.” A small collection of one-off vases was produced, based on the initial research." Three different models are available at valerie_objects. Metal, glass and ceramic form the framework to arrange flowers in.
