HOME DESIGN IDEAS BY FLOWER POT HACK

home design idea by flower pot hack Designed for nature, and from nature, the Alphapot transforms food waste into a molded, modular planter. Its grave to cradle approach reduces waste by turning the food we throw away into a planter that can be used to grow plants, allowing the waste to serve a much nobler purpose. Typical planters come made from either ceramic/terracotta, or plastic, neither of which are biodegradable. The Alphapot relies on a material derived from food waste, making it feel like plastic, but be a completely natural alternative. The food waste is broken down into a pulp, which is then dried, ground, and compressed into the shape of a planter. With a design that feels like a finished product, the Alphapot uses the same material that is grown within it (plants), creating an infinite loop that cuts down heavily on waste that would normally be dumped in a landfill and would decompose, producing tonnes of methane in the process. The design of the Alphapot was the result of a very specific set of purposes too. Its square top was made to enable modularity, allowing you to create a row or even a farm of pots that would snap together to form a kitchen garden of sorts. The circular base conforms to more traditional pot-shapes, allowing the Alphapot to dock in stands or hanging apparatuses meant for plastic or ceramic/clay pots. The square rim of the planter also creates a dedicated space for a water reservoir that allows the plants to self-hydrate, pulling in water from the reservoir on their own, eliminating one’s need to manually water the plant day after day. Made from compressed, dried food-waste, the Alphapot is biodegradable too, allowing you to use it as a planter, and directly place it into the soil when the plant begins growing big. Ridges on the base of the Alphapot increase surface area contact with the soil, accelerating the decomposition process, and since the Alphapot is made from food waste, it ends up enriching the soil with nutrients that feed the plant. Designed with a negative footprint and a positive impact, the Alphapot makes greenery even greener! Designer: Bionicraft
