Bamboo Planter

Ann Arbor // MI

This long rectangular planter was built in-house to add some much needed green space to the office and create a buffer between a more casual lounge area and the working studio. The legs follow the irregular leanings of the growing bamboo, feeling almost like the legs of a walking creature. The steel plate is held in place with magnets, allowing for a clean consistent floating effect around the top perimeter.
