the inside of the watering branch by 1/plinth studio features luminous resin, which reminds of the childhood glowing star stickers. in this way, the design, as well as the whole exhibition, seems to appeal to younger people and kids too. furthermore, the resin also helps the piece to maintain its balance and stand firmly on any flat surface. 

‘watering branch’ comes in two sizes, being able to store either 400ml, or 1000ml of water. it can be used as a typical watering can or it can become a vase itself, in order to not only water plants and flowers but also display them in a fresh, unexpected way.
