The Phytophiler” project consists of a collection of hand-thrown terracotta pots on which a series of functional appendices are installed through a series of holes.
Those accessory elements suggest the daily gestures and cares that a “phytophiler” has for the plants sharing his living spaces: magnifying glasses to accurately observe leaves; mirrors to allow a total vision of the plant and multiply its beauty; a resonant vase to please the plant and enhance its development through vibrations; a small add-on garden to make a small shrubs feel like a tree overlooking a field; a functional straw shelter to give restoring shade; a net structure appendix to allow a climbing houseplant to grow and create a domestic pergola; furthermore small vases that, as satellites, host little plants of other species thus creating a micro-climate in which the moisture produced by each plant can join the one of its neighbors to increase reciprocal well-being.
