About Plantaura

Plantaura creates functional sculptures designed to live with plants.

Each piece is shaped with growth in mind, allowing plants to settle, trail, and slowly change the object over time. These are not decorative planters meant to stay fixed. They are made to evolve through use, light, water, and patience.

The work sits between utility and form. Objects are designed to be planted into, lived with, and kept close, rather than staged or treated as static decor.

All pieces are produced in small batches and finished by hand in Toronto, Canada.

Inside the Studio

Plantaura is made in a small working studio in Toronto.

This is where forms are tested, refined, broken, replanted, and lived with. Plants share the space with tools, dust, prototypes, and daily routines. Pieces stay here long enough to show what works, what doesn’t, and what wants to change.

The studio is not a showroom. It’s an environment. Objects and living things share the same light, time, and attention.

The person behind the work

Plantaura is made by one person: Adrian.

I work with my hands because it’s how I stay connected — to materials, to time, and to myself. The work began simply, out of a desire to do what I love and to live with objects that felt grounded, useful, and allowed to change.

Plants have always been part of that. They grow at their own pace, respond to their surroundings, and quietly reshape the space around them. These pieces are designed to do the same.

Every form is tested through daily use, planted into, adjusted, and lived with before it’s released. If it doesn’t earn its place in my own space, it doesn’t leave the studio.

Nothing here is rushed. The objects are meant to settle in, to age, and to become more meaningful the longer they’re around.

Plantaura pieces are meant to be used, not rushed, and not replaced.

They’re made to stay.
