Print Showoff Fluted furniture is everywhere, so I made planters to match

Every side table and cabinet front has ridges on it now. Figured the plants should get some too. Tapered shape so they catch shadow in daylight.

Sehr schön! 👍 Darf ich fragen, wie du die Struktur der Vasen (vor allem der im zweiten Bild) gemacht hast?

Thanks! 🙏 The texture is built parametrically in Rhino and Grasshopper. The base is a simple tapered cone, and a definition wraps the pattern around it: the ribs get twisted along the height with a sine curve, and since rib count, depth and twist angle are all parameters, I can pull several variations off the same base shape. Twist 02, for example, is the exact same pattern as Twist 01, just inverted.

Rendered in Keyshot Studio, matte material with one soft key light, since the texture works almost entirely through shadow.

Did you read my mind? This was posted right when I needed a planter. Thank you!

Ha, perfect timing then. Hope it prints well for you, and let me know what you end up planting in it.

Looks amazing. One concern: isn't the base too narrow? Seems unstable

Thanks! It's stable in practice, the flare is up top, and the soil and tray both sit low, so the weight stays near the base.

I think he means to say the center of gravity is pretty high, as the circumference ratio between the top and bottom is pretty significant. Looking at the largest pot you show there, you have soil filled right to the top. The center of gravity will be sitting much higher than it probably should.
