Designer
The balance between architectural structure and organic fluidity defines the very essence of the Vondom Bones collection, designed by the renowned Italian duo Ludovica and Roberto Palomba for Vondom. This series of planters goes beyond the simple function of a container to become a true statement of visual balance. Inspired by the forms of nature, it skilfully combines slender lines with generous volumes, creating a presence that is both light and robust. Each piece seems to invite plants to settle naturally into the space, turning terraces and gardens into contemporary landscapes where design quietly converses with living things.
The structural ingenuity and reversibility of Bones
What really sets this range apart is its hidden engineering and its boldly reversible character. Far from monolithic, Bones planters have a sophisticated internal structure that supports the weight of plants and trees from the base, ensuring stability without ever compromising the airy look of the object. This technical design allows rare versatility: the pots can stand with the wide part on the ground for a reassuring visual base, or be turned upside down for a more dynamic silhouette that flares towards the sky.
This flexibility lets architects and interior designers play with volumes and adapt the layout to the specific needs of each project. Whether structuring a minimalist entrance hall or giving rhythm to a large outdoor terrace, these versatile pieces offer complete freedom of composition. Rotational moulding, a manufacturing process mastered by the Spanish brand, gives these objects outstanding weather resistance while keeping a remarkably fine texture.
A timeless aesthetic rooted in the collective unconscious
The work of Ludovica and Roberto Palomba is deeply rooted in the observation of human behaviour and rich in cultural references. For the Bones range, their aim was to create products that combine function, innovation and longevity, building lasting emotional connections with the user. In their view, good design already exists in a kind of collective unconscious; their role is to shape it and reveal it. That is why each planter, while resolutely modern, has a soothing familiarity, as if it had always been part of the landscape.
Available in a variety of finishes and colours, these designs bring a sophisticated touch to the most demanding spaces. They embody a functional elegance that does not date, proving that a successful design piece should feel fresh when first discovered, yet never foreign.
