South Africa planter company, Indigenus, founded by Peter van der Post, has collaborated with ceramicist Andile Dyalvane and furniture designer Laurie Wiid van Heerden on two new planter collections.
Both Andile and Laurie’s understanding of the scale and impact of large sculptural planters, and how they impact the landscape of an outdoor area or an architectural space, made them the perfect collaborative partners.
The Bhaca collection, designed by Andile Dyalvane, is made of concrete and clay, the latter a material Andile often chooses to work with. The Bhaca range is available in fire-pit black, concrete grey or bleached white. Laurie’s Terra range sees an updated version of Mid-century Modern planters on stands, with the rectangular planters getting rounded corners, along with a solid base of sturdy Iroko wood.
Indigenus’s planters, which come standard with inner pot linings, are both lightweight and durable.
