Folded Garden:
A Hanging Planter
2nd Year Fall 2017 \\ Phipps Conservatory Garden, 1 Schenley Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15213
This project required us to construct a portable and lightweight armature for nurturing and sustain a plant through the first frost. The plant will be hung on a lattice wall outside. The materials are limited to heat shrink plastic and piano wire (.062”, .032”). I design the planter to address the plant’s needs of water, exposure to the sunlight, and direction of growth.
