The inspiration comes from coral reefs, those extraordinary marine formations built over time through countless small acts of accretion. Coral is fragile in appearance, yet remarkably resilient in structure. It is full of chambers, openings and branching networks that allow light, water and life to move through it. Corallum translates that language into an object for the interior. The design interprets the coral logics turning into an intricate porous layered structure.
The surface of Corallum is defined by a network of smooth-edged apertures that wrap the body in a continuous lattice. Each opening shifts slightly in scale and proportion, giving the piece a natural irregularity while preserving a clear overall rhythm. This outer shell creates depth, shadow and changing light across the form. The cavities soften the mass of the planter, making it feel lighter, more open and more tactile. The precision of 3D printing allows these transitions to remain crisp yet fluid, with a finish that feels sculpted rather than mechanical.
With compact dimensions of approximately 190 x 190 x 150 mm, Corallum is designed to sit naturally within an interior while retaining a clear visual presence. Its rounded form brings softness, while the open top and finely resolved cellular geometry lend the piece a refined, architectural character. An integrated removable tray is set within the planter to support easier planting, drainage control and day-to-day maintenance. Sculptural yet practical, Corallum is carefully proportioned for tables, consoles and shelves. Small in scale, yet unmistakable in presence.
