Made to Light You Up
This particular design is called the “Grass Lamp.” It’s designed by Marko Vuckovic to bring warmth into your environment through the fabulously cunning combination of cool human design with natures lovely natural elements. Same word. Its huge, yet discreet. Grows grass, yet it’s PVC. Only light will tell. It’s difficult to display anything other than flowers inside a home, items that are meant to remain outside. And yet, here it is! A rather magnificent display for grass!
On the wall it goes, to refine the space it goes is where it goes. It goes there, and it does that. The Grass lamp helps the grass grow with its light, and lightens the room at the same time.
Made of light PVC plastic material with thin walls, its inside reserved for soil, water, and yes, grass.
Designer: Marko Vuckovic

Cool Idea, but a regular old pot works better and is cheaper

I am a plant person and love green in any form, especially this time of year, but this seems a bit much. Get a regular light and a plant or two for a lot less money and hassle.
Some plants are so tough you can almost not kill them. African violets are nice; pretty flowers and if you water them once a month they are happy.

This brings up some issues though. Cutting the grass in this thing could be quite annoying. Then, when you do cut it, it’s even more annoying to collect the clippings. Or do you just leave them in there?
Sam says
If you left them there and added in some worms or something, the grass would decompose. Although worms would kinda take away from the futuristic design…

It’s an interesting concept, but I don’t think it would mesh visually with most people’s homes. I mean, it goes great with that steel-studded black grid wall and low-clearance couch, but outside of a corporate waiting room, you’re not likely to find that kind of decor.
I don’t usually say this about these concept things, but I see real potential here.
franco says
Cool idea but its kinda big for a ‘small* flat isn’t it? A cheaper alternative is a terrarium. Greenery + lighting.
tucker says
I love this idea, but there is something about indoor grass that just makes me think this is going to attract little tiny flies and gnats.

uh, guys, trademark infringement on oakley?
really, seems like something they’d hang in their reception area if they were into the nature thing (which their architecture doesn’t at all fit with, of course).
but the resemblance is absolutely stunning to their icon.

Giant.Oakley.Logo. maybe not but its still giant. Its longer than the couch, do you know how heavy that would be on a wall?
Marko Vuckovic says
People its not heavy its thin pvc plastic. It is not Oakley or any logo, that is my design, you can check my other projects on my behance network.

thi is so much an oakley logo i mean rotate the oakley logo in 3d and these are the perfects lines which flow along logo. i think you would have corrected your product before coming up with something u never intended to do as u mention
mif991 says
Yep, the scale overwhelms everything else. If it is plastic, I wonder what the tooling will cost…Nice form though.
Feniks says
If somebody wont there are small grasses and theres no cutting. Develop for people who hate cutting.
tryner says
Oakley would love this. I know it probably wasn’t designed with Oakley in mind, it was probably an oversight, but as people are pointing out, it’s almost dead on.
Sucks when simple geometry has been so closely associated with a company or product that no one else is allowed to use it… then again I guess that’s the benefit of popularizing it in the first place
