This funny “Bloom my Buddy” project by Niels van Eijk and Miriam van der Lubbe for Dutch flowers and plants. It’s a boy or a girl. Or an it – whatever suits you best. And as brand new type of vase it’s open to suggestions. Will it be haute couture in a flowery dress, seductiveness with roses so red, sheer envy with hauntingly green chystanthemums or an agry look with thorny branches? Bloom by buddy is the easy type: fun to play with, free to create your wildest dreams and an ideal spokesperson for your moods and grooves. It looks at you as if to say: Go on, express yourself.
