Unique Properties: The musical vase is a multifunctional vase suitable for different scenes: First of all, this is a unique vase that can hold flowers, dried flowers or fruits. The detachable transparent glass container and the platform enable it to combine with the object being held in different ways. Secondly, at the bottom of it is a Bluetooth player, which attempts to establish a dialogue between human and nature by integrating with the vase, bringing a multi-sensory experience to people.
Dimensions & Packaging: The size is 265*290*125 (mm)
Tags: Vase, Musical, Plant, Function, Life, Aesthetics
Production Technology: In the design, 3D printing is used for the shell and the surface of it is painted and polished, and a glass container is placed in the middle to hold the flowers. After that, ABS plastic materials and glass materials are used for mass production.
Design Challenge: Turn inspiration into reality.
Research: Designers have paid much attention on vase design in terms of the special material, color and shape of vase, while weakening the role of plants. we believe the essential function of vase is presenting the beauty of natural plants instead of over-decorating itself. Our design puts natural plants in the center and creates maximum space for presenting the beauty of plants. We would like to build connection between human and nature by vision and hearing. Musical vase will bring peace, imagination, and harmony into human life.
Inspiration: Circle is the most initial and most inclusive form, symbolizing completeness, harmony, and iterative growth. Musical Vase has a circular shape with plants growing from the center of circle. This visual form symbolizes that plants have vigorous vitality to break through the limited space and bloom brilliantly. Musical vase is a multifunctional vase that can play music, which can bring people both hearing and vision enjoyment. White is used to set off the natural beauty of plants. The minimalist Zen shape allows the sound to spread to the depths of people's hearts, and the hollowed out part of the shape brings more imagination. The size ratio and load-bearing capacity of the white plastic shell to the glass container have also been accurately calculated.
Project Duration: The project started in Hangzhou in July 2020 and completed in Hangzhou in September 2020.
Operation Flow: qThe transparent glass part can be filled with water and fresh plants, or it can be removed as a container for dried flowers. The platform at the bottom can hold fallen flowers which can let the fragrance of flowers last longer, or it can be used to hold fruits for decoration.
