The design of these planters was inspired by jutting granite boulders found along the Cape Town coast in South Africa:

Greg Truen and Stefan Antoni of architectural firm SAOTA, have designed a new collection of planters for Indigenus. The planters, inspired by granite boulders, have been designed to be sculptural objects that also have a function.

The planters, named Steen, can also be grouped together to make a statement installation. Each planter is made from glass reinforced concrete, which is lighter and stronger than regular concrete. With each piece spending two days in a high quality mould, and a further two days being hand buffed to achieve a beautiful suede-like finish. The planters are then sealed to protect the finish, and are lined to be fully waterproof.
