Follow Me Sculptural Vase

Follow Me Sculptural Vase is an innovative sculptural vessel that harmoniously merges artistic expression with functional design, drawing inspiration from the elegant form of a peacock. Created by British designer Heloise Rajkumari, this sophisticated piece exemplifies the intersection of decorative art and practical utility in contemporary design. The vase features a distinctive tripartite construction, comprising a main body and two detachable wing pieces, measuring 250 mm x 120 mm x 260 mm overall. Its semi-open form, characterized by a body measuring 220 mm x 60 mm x 260 mm and wing components of 120 mm x 230 mm, incorporates strategically placed perforations that serve both aesthetic and functional purposes. The design's innovative approach to flower arrangement is evident in its carefully considered features that address common challenges in floral display and maintenance. The perforated wing pieces, which can be customized according to different arrangement needs, provide structural support while allowing for optimal air circulation around flower stems, thereby extending the longevity of cut flowers. This thoughtful design solution, recognized with an Iron A' Design Award in the Fine Arts and Art Installation Design category, demonstrates exceptional consideration for both form and function. The vase's unique architecture enables users to add water without disturbing existing arrangements, while its semi-open structure promotes proper air circulation, effectively reducing bacterial growth and enhancing flower preservation. The design's conceptual depth is further enhanced by its interpretation of the peacock's distinctive tail features, transforming them into functional elements that guide flower placement and create visually striking arrangements.
