Hang a Cork On It (Kobi Nakav)

Jerusalem,

I introduce you to my latest favourite find ... a square cork hanging plant by Israeli industrial design student Kobi Nakav. Featured at the Designed in Israel 08 exhibition as part of the Future Designers section, Nakav brings the outdoors indoors with this innovative and modern proposal for growing greener interior pastures.  Fashioned much like picture frames, the square cork is fitted onto a plastic receptacle to allow for watering and bulbous at the base to account for plant growth space.

They fit together like chains and can even be lined up to form a sort of interior screen of plants and cork, as if recreating an indoors urban jungle. The open links also blow in the wind as well, recalling the more natural state of growth, plant and the outdoors - something unattainable from regular hanging plants.
