Urban Pot Inc was commissioned to create some 50 planters in various minimalist shapes for two shopping malls in Montreal. The malls were due to undergo extensive modernization and refurbishment. The commission stipulated that many of the planters required casters in order to be easily moved. A key part of the new concept was to be able to create new spaces on an ongoing bases within the malls. In addition to the need for mobility the planters were also required to be fitted with accessible brakes minimize any chance of injury or accident. A simple solution allowing staff to apply brakes from the top of the planters, and lock them position was designed and implemented successfully. The planters were constructed from 3/16” or 1/8” aluminum.
