Sculpture meets function in the Steen planter range from Indigenus.
When architects branch out into product design, interesting things can happen. So when Peter van der Post of Indigenus commissioned Stefan Antoni and Greg Truen to design a planter range, it soon became apparent something special was on the horizon.
Much more than mere pots, the planters in the Steen range are sculptural objects that retain their visual appeal regardless of whether they are left empty or filled with plants.
“We’re not aiming to become a big brand,” says Peter, who started the Indigenus planter collection in 2014. “We want to earn our place as a quality design brand.”
The Steen range is certainly a step in the right direction.
