About Flora ملٹی فنکشنل گلدان
فلورا ایک گلدان اور اسٹینڈ ہے۔ ایک دستکاری سے بنا مجسمہ سازی کا مرکز جس کا مقصد آپ کو موجود رہنے اور ان قدرتی عناصر پر توجہ مرکوز کرنے میں مدد کرنا ہے جو گھریلو ماحول میں فطرت کے ساتھ گہرے رشتے کو فروغ دیتے ہوئے روزمرہ کی زندگی کے گرد گھومتے ہیں۔ پھولوں اور پھلوں کو اس سطح تک بلند کرنے کا طریقہ جس کے وہ مستحق ہیں۔ فطرت کی خوبصورتی سے حیرت زدہ ہو کر وقت کے ساتھ ارتقاء پذیر فلورا کو پودوں کے میٹامورفوسس کے تصور کو خراج تحسین کے طور پر ڈیزائن کیا گیا تھا۔ پھول اور پھل جوہر میں ایک ہی چیز ہیں، وہ بس اپنی زندگی کے مختلف مراحل پر ہوتے ہیں۔

- Production Technology
- Alabaster has been considered a spiritual material helping to free the being and purify the soul. A material full of positive energy that can help us focus and connect with the simple pleasures in life. In love with this beautiful, translucent alabaster for a long time, Flora is expertly handcrafted and hand finished by master artisans in Spain using the purest Alabaster quarried in the center of my homeland, the Ebro Valley in Aragon, Spain. A hand blown glass tube completes the piece.
- Design Challenge
- Alabaster is a delicate material that can easily deteriorate with water. The piece requires a special treatment that helps to protect the surface without altering the beauty of the piece. The central pillar was originally conceived differently but due to the specific characteristics and fragility of the alabaster, the shape needed to be adjusted. Finally to create a smooth assembly experience and stabilize the connections between the alabaster pieces, natural cork is used in the connection points to prevent breakage and scratches during assembly.
- Research
- I wanted to create a piece that was a sanctuary and a spiritual home for flowers, leaves, and fruits. Alabaster has been used throughout history in architecture, decoration and sculpture in churches and cathedrals. As the opposite of marble, alabaster feels warm and induces feelings of peace and calm. Its translucency evokes the fragility of nature.
- Inspiration
- I have always been amazed by the beauty of nature while evolving in time. Focusing on this principle I designed Flora as a tribute to the concept of metamorphosis of plants. Flowers and fruits are in essence the same thing, they are just at different stages of their lives. Even though not every flower results in a fruit, any fruit we enjoy was at one time a flower and those fruits contain in turn the seeds for future flowers.
- Project Duration
- Flora was originally designed in 2017 and made out of resin in 3 pieces in San Francisco as a personal project. After further development and adjustments in shape and dimensions the piece was made in a Luxurious Alabaster Stone and blown glass in Spain. The first Alabaster prototype was exhibited in Superstudio Piu during Milan Design Week in September 2021. Final design and production was achieved in 2022.
- Operation Flow
- The central vase acts as a pillar where the two round plates are inserted to create the stand. The glass tube accommodates water and flowers. It can be removed to easily replace or add water and to be cleaned.
