HAUTE GARDENER
Capsule
In celebration of spring, Ivan Hunga Garcia inaugurates Haute Gardener's first catalogue featuring four objects. Each Host — a highly customisable element — functions as a "root incubator," positioning itself as a collector's object directed towards enthusiasts of botany, interior design, and fashion alike.
The typologies encompass a range of accessories wearable on the human body yet equally potent in their quality as domestic terrariums. These small ecosystems are commissioned according to specifications of typology, species, and material with the recipient in mind, and can be delivered at different stages of growth maturation.
Plants are the fluid element of the compositions. They invade and establish themselves throughout the structure, whether organic or synthetic in geometry, eventually overcrowding it. This seasonal sample introduces a catalogue corresponding to the year 2025, respecting periodic moments of incubation and propagation.
