Plastic snap assembled seaweed.
I�m fascinated by designs inspired by nature. This forgotten treasure of tidepools is actually made of plastic and can snap together with other algae to create a curtain, screen or wall decoration. They�re 12 inches by 8 inches each, and are available in red, green, black or white. $25 for a set of six, or $200 for 50 at the manufacturer�s showroom store in NYC. Vitra, 212-929-3626.

DESIGNER: Ronan Bouroullec, Erwan Bouroullec
