New York, NY - Stephan Jaklitsch, the architect and designer, has created his first home-decor product - designed exclusively for the MoMA Design Store. Drawing inspiration from organic landscapes, this puzzle-like vase is composed of a series of interlocking panels has a unique undulating form that mimics the earth's natural tapestry. The eleven panels intersect to create multiple openings that support stems for a variety of flower arrangements. The Vase is made of environmentally-friendly, cornstarch-based PLA plastic in a contemporary glossy white finish. The material is compostable, contains no toxins and is a sustainable alternative to conventional plastics. "It was important to me that the vase be fully biodegradable - so material research was a key component of the design process." Jaklitsch says. "Our goal was to create a beautiful, contemporary, and eco-friendly product."
