Shape of Nature is an upcycled fabric plant pot, whose main material is Hanji. Hanji, a new upcycled material created by Hanji Design Team, contains about 60% recycled fabric and wool. By applying Hanji on plant pots, they can absorb surplus water on the bottom, which prevents from breeding mosquitos. After growing plants for three months, there was no mold found on the surface of plant pots and the plants grew well. Moreover, because Hanji has many capillaries, the roots of plants can get enough air and can grow through of it, so the plant pots do not need to be removed when transplanting.
