The Living Pots: How these flower pots clean the air

These plant pots mark the beginning of a new era in modern design. They utilise innovative technology to reduce the carbon dioxide (CO₂) content in the air.

"The Living Pots" are made of 3D-printed natural cellulose and use Pure.Tech, an advanced decarbonisation technology that can absorb CO₂. In addition, the containers are made from naturally coloured linen fabrics and biodegradable casings made from the fruits and herbs of Alula.

The collection currently consists of individual pieces. However, according to Pure.Tech, the technology can be applied to almost any surface. This could enable the development of further product lines in the future that actively combat climate change. In the meantime, projects such as "The Living Pots" are already helping to create new connections between Al-ʿUla and the international creative community. <p

Like a cheerleader, I love celebrating good design and bringing you closer to everything furniture- and interior design- related. I regularly curate simple yet sophisticated interior ideas, report on trends and interview creative minds about their work.
