Plan Ta Modular Vase

Plan Ta Modular Vase

Plan Ta Modular Vase is an innovative magnetic modular planter system that seamlessly combines functionality with interactive design elements, representing a significant advancement in contemporary plant container design. This sophisticated system, designed by Xavier Zhagui, employs space-filling polyhedrons and advanced 3D printing technology to create interconnecting vessels that serve both as plant containers and architectural building blocks. The design features two distinct sizes - a small variant measuring 50.8mm x 71.8mm x 50.8mm suitable for air plants, and a larger 127mm x 179.6mm x 127mm version accommodating house plants. Constructed using PETG material through FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) 3D printing technology, the vases incorporate neodymium sphere magnets as connection points, enabling multi-directional assembly and configuration. The larger variant employs a dual-shell design, featuring an interior vessel for plant containment and an exterior shell for drainage collection, while maintaining structural integrity and water resistance. This Iron A' Design Award-winning creation in the 3D Printed Forms and Products Design category demonstrates exceptional innovation in addressing spatial efficiency through its ability to be arranged vertically or horizontally, making it particularly valuable for urban environments with limited space. The design's versatility is further enhanced by its wall-mounting capability, allowing for vertical gardening applications while maintaining its modular functionality.
