Vas Viridarium is a speculative design project born from imagining a future where single use plastics are banned, silver is repurposed for war, and ceramics are scarce. To adapt, Americans cultivate indoor gardens of succulents that replace utensils: velvet leaves as napkins, pluckable leaves as forks and knives, and hardy stems for reuse. The project explores how design can respond to scarcity, sustainability, and our persistent desire for convenience.
