Designed by world renowned designers including Karim rashid (Orikami), Yves Behar (Pixel Burst) and Dario Antonioni (Flow), Botanist benches and side tables are made from powder coated lightweight aluminum (20 colours available). Botanist starts with Flow, a minimalist form which is oven baked to deliver a highly durable and UV stable finish - at home indoors and out. Manufactured under licence in Australia by botton + gardiner, a percentage of every sale goes to a charity of the designer’s choice. Botanist pieces feature a strong support structure, anti-theft security feet and authentic signature medallion.
Happy indoors and outThe Flow, Flora, and Designer series are ready for outdoor use; they employ an industrial grade powder coating on the aluminum structure, which naturally resists corrosion.
Modern environmentNeed a perfect place for your entertainment system that has modern technology in mind? The bench can be used to hold your Plasma TV and audio/visual equipment without the bulk to accommodate older technology. The structural brace has holes that can be used for cable management to keep pesky wires off the floor.
Impossibly thinThe thin profile cleverly conceals the true strength and durability of each Botanist piece.
Nesting end tablesOur end tables are made to nest over the cocktail table, combining to create a layered look that highlights the complimentary surfaces and materials. A small storage area is created that can be used to conceal magazines, remotes, and incidentals.

Powder-coatingThe Interpon Powder Coatings are solvent-free and comprised of various synthetic resins, pigments and special additives for a high quality surface finish. Economic and ecological powder coatings represent the future of paint technology.
Tough powder coatOur powder coating is tougher than any paint. The process applies plastic resin particles to each piece, which is then baked in an oven, creating a durable layer of plastic on the surface. The colours are UV and weather resistant intended to be used outdoors. It’s the toughest stuff that we could find, and we think it looks great too.
Worried about water & rust?Don’t be. All Botanist pieces are made from aluminum alloy that is highly corrosion resistant and powder-coated for extreme durability. They are happy to live in a damp environment and look great in a garden or around the pool.
Want a custom colour?Custom colour Botanist pieces are possible. Contact us to find out colour specification requirements. (Minimum orders and setups fees apply)
Botanist has been used in modern homes, nurseries, schools, libraries, spas, pools, flower shops, events, yachts, mud rooms, airports, lobbies, entertainment centers, retail stores, and much more.

Want to try your own graphic?We are happy to apply your designs, including logos, patterns, and type, to our Botanist pieces. We can work with your designers to develop a product that fits your project. (Minimum order and setup fees apply).
Water-jetWater is expelled from a small nozzle at a high velocity to create intricate designs in the aluminum. There is no heat involved in the process so the material maintains its integrity.
Sleek and subtleThe sleek forms and intricate details of the botanist series communicate a sophistication of design and space. At home in a modern setting, as well as in the outdoors, the botanist pieces elevate the character of their surroundings.
Add on security feetWant to use these pieces in a public space? Our available surface mount security feet securely anchor these to the ground.
Worried about strength?Each piece is formed from a 6mm aluminum alloy sheet, making it durable, yet lighter than you might expect. In addition, the cocktail table and bench are reinforced further with a structural brace that is welded in place. Even the cocktail table can be used as occasional seating during an outdoor soiree or a loft party.
Contract readyBotanist pieces feature the durability, quality, and style that you expect from contract grade furniture.

BIOGRAPHYBy the age of 10, Dario Antonioni was a bona-fide flight junkie, churning out model airplanes like a man obsessed. While other kids were memorizing baseball statistics, Antonioni was devouring every book about the Wright Brothers he could get his hands on. Even then, Antonioni was amazed not so much by the flight itself - but by the fact that two nobody bicycle mechanics had the effrontery to revolutionize a field so far beyond their area of expertise that they had almost no business being there.
“They were the kind of innovators who didn’t follow a standard path,” says Antonioni. “They cleared a totally new path - even if it meant they didn’t know where they’d end up, and they were unwilling to allow any barrier to stop them. To me, that’s what innovation is about.”
INSPIRATIONI love my work and that appreciation makes me want to give back. That’s simply why we created Botanist. Inspiration for the simple forms came from the notion of a “blank canvas”. Maximum surface area while creating a functional, strong, and modular system of nest-able geometrics was the goal. Reducing the objects to minimal needs became a key design driver. This is why there are three elements, a. the canvas, b. the rib, and c. the feet.The rest, is well - up to the designers.
WHY GIVE BACK?My older brother Pablo has down syndrome. Throughout my life I’ve dedicated time as a Special Olympics coach, teacher, and friend to the down syndrome community. The experience has changed my life. Pablo is a reminder to me of our own purity, delicacy, simplicity, and what it takes to nurture true unwavering love. He makes us all special. That is why I have chosen the Special Olympics as my charity of choice.

Kammermeyer, ricchio established the “Cortona Design retreat:” an annual program to take selected design students interested in a career in furniture design to visit the Milan Furniture Fair and experience the Italian culture.
INSPIRATIONThe concept is my expression of the beauty of life. I chose a deli-cate and elegant branch with dew dropping off of it to represent earth, water and life.
WHY GIVE BACK?DIFFA : Design Industry Fighting Aids. I have been donating to them for many years for a variety of reasons:1 ) Larry Pond was the Director of Design at Stendig and introduced my first chair, he began DIFFA and has since died of AIDS2 ) I have a family member that is HIV positive and3 ) I believe it is simply a good choice.
BIOGRAPHYJoseph D. ricchio Jr. was born in Cambridge, Massachusetts in 1955. Since 1980 he has lived in Seal Beach, California with his wife Marla and his two sons, Aaron an aspiring graphic designer and Jacob a musician. He is a 1980 graduate of California State University at Long Beach with a Bachelor of Science in Industrial Design. As a student of CSULB he was selected with 45 other students to travel to Florence, Italy.

BIOGRAPHYMilton Glaser, an American designer, was born in New York City on June 26, 1929. He attended the High School of Music and Art and the Cooper Union Art School in New York, and later, via a Fulbright Scholarship, the Academy of Fine Arts, Bologna, Italy. In 1954, he founded Pushpin Studios with fellow classmates. For twenty years Glaser, together with Seymour Chwast, directed the organisation, which exerted a powerful influence on the direction of world graphic design, culminating in a memorable exhibition at the Louvre Museum of Decorative Arts.
In 1968, Glaser and Clay Felker founded New York Magazine, where he was president and design director until 1977. Later in 1983, Glaser and Walter Bernard formed WBMG, a publication design firm. Since its inception, WBMG redesigned a long list of magazines, consulted on various news publications, and designed a number of books. Milton Glaser, Inc. was established in 1974.

BIOGRAPHYSince founding Chase Design Group in 1986, Margo has consistently produced award-winning work in many areas of design. recognized worldwide for her skill with custom typography and identity development, Margo is dedicated to creating success for her clients.
Initially trained in biology, she discovered graphic design in graduate school and was quickly hooked. Over the past 20 years, regarded as a rare creative talent, Margo’s landmark identity design has gained international recognition. Building on early successes in the music business designing packaging for artists Madonna, Cher, Prince, Bonnie raitt and others, her studio’s dynamic, award winning style can now be seen in work for a long roster of prestigious clients including Procter & Gamble, Belkin, Cartoon Network, Mattel, Nike, reebok, Starbucks, Target, The WB Television Network, Virgin records, and Warner Bros. records.
In a recent Graphic Design USA reader’s poll, Margo was one of only two designers to make the top ten in both “Most Influential Graphic Designers of the Era” and “Most Influential Graphic Designers Today” categories. Her firm also was voted in the top ten “Most Influential Design Firms of the Era”. Among numerous other awards, Chase was selected as one of I.D. Magazine’s “I.D. Forty.” Her work has been featured in countless design periodicals and books, and she was recently featured in the celebrated show “Women Designers in the USA, 1900-2000: Diversity and Difference” on exhibition in New York City.
Chase has taught advanced typography classes at Art Center College of Design and California Institute of the Arts. Outside of the office, she also loves to ski, travel, and fly aerobatics.
INSPIRATIONThis design is an expression of the freedom of flight. The shapes are biomorphic and abstract- birds, but not birds. They scatter across the curved surfaces like leaves blown by the breeze, random, chaotic, joyful. The colors are earth tones, the color of plains, forests and deserts, the color of the land beneath the sky and the cycle of the seasons.
I recently learned to fly. Flying a small plane is a study in contradic-tions; it is both an expression of freedom and an acknowledgment of man’s lack of freedom. I am pushing my self expression further than most pilots by learning aerobatics. Being able to do loops, rolls and hammerheads allows me to play in all three dimensions. But even the best airplane can only approximate the experience a bird must have. Knowing instinctively how to fly from soon after birth, to them, the sky must feel like home.

INSPIRATIONFlora was intended to combine the technical precision of the flow line of furniture with the beauty and irreverence of nature. In fact, this piece was the inspiration for the Botanist name. I have always found the intersection of the technical and natural to be fascinating; it highlights the possibilities of human achievement and alludes to the playfulness and casual beauty of nature. Los Angeles is full of these wonderful juxtapositions, and hopefully this collection embodies the delight they bring me.
WHY GIVE BACK?As a recipient of a quality public school education, I realize the power and opportunity that schools have to help shape the future of children. During my time in Los Angeles, I was amazed at the differences from neighborhood to neighborhood, and the disparity between the opportunities for children in undeserved communities and their more well-off neighbors. Organizations like Green Dot are making huge strides to change the face of public education in the Los Angeles, and their efforts will transform the city into a brighter and more vibrant one.

BIOGRAPHY“I was raised on gardening, PBS, and a pretty heavy video game addiction. As interested in science and technology as art and nature, it seems that I’ve been groomed for design my entire life. Starting my path in engineering, and then veering a hard left into my current design career, I gravitate toward opportunities to learn and contribute.”
Brandon spent two years as a lead designer at LA firm Orange22, working on projects ranging from furniture and product design, to retail design. He worked on retail concepts for Carpe Diem, L’Oreal/Matrix, and Biolage. He also developed products for established furniture companies, in addition to developing several lines for Orange22’s entrepreneurial effort.“We were small and self-motivated, and successfully launched a well-received line of furniture and developed several internal products; we really put our expertise to use.”
Currently Brandon is part of the team at Seattle-based Teague, an established firm with an 80 year history that has recently begun to make its mark on future technologies. At Teague, Brandon has helped develop strategic product experiences for clients such as Microsoft, Zune, HP, and Intel.
“To be able to contribute to such a talented team is a rare gift in this field, and one I’m thrilled about every day. I always hope to add a touch of surprise and a human perspective to my projects.”

INSPIRATIONWe decided to take the three basic ways of setting type as a reference (for us only), that are: flash left (for the long bench) centred (for the middle one) and justified (for the table) so we played the usual interaction between design fields... We were not interested in flowery patterns, so the lines were natural for us. That was our inspiration...
WHY GIVE BACK?For the last 25 years, rIT has been collecting archives of the best modernist graphic designers of the last century and they really use this material for teaching, so the students learn, about History, Theory and Criticism, directly from the archive material. really a rare opportunity, that no other Institutions share. rIT is expanding their collecting policy to include some product design and our Archive will be the first to cover the whole field of Design. Worldwide, it is quite rare to find an Archive Center for Design Studies that is well organised, always open to the students and scholars. The Vignelli Center for Design Studies at the rIT will be an alive place, to support the education of the designers of the next generations.

Zellweger, who was born in Luzern, Switzerland, sees the role of designer as that of creating for people’s known and unknown needs. Designers – he believes - have to anticipate the new and increasingly sophisticated fictional architecture of our desires. He also believes that by making the complex simple and likeable, the designer is able to provide relief for tension.
Zellweger’s point of view developed after he graduated from Art Center College of Design, California in 1997 and spent several years working for well-known Silicon Valley firm Pentagram Design, where he designed products for clients such as Motorola, AT &T, and Polaroid. His most visible effort of that period was the 2002 Latitude design language for Dell, the world’s most sold notebook line to date. In 2001, Zellweger joined San Francisco’s One & Co as a partner and creative director. During this time, One & Co’s work in the sporting goods industry – with partner like Burton, Fila and Nike – received recognition and caught the attention of the tech industry. In recent years, Claude Zellweger has helped to grow the firm to become one of the Bay Area’s dominant young design forces. Today, companies such as Kodak, Microsoft, Kensington and Sony are calling on Zellweger to envision and lead the development of their brand and design.
Claude’s work has been internationally recognized in museums and competitions alike, includ-ing awards from ID Magazine, IDSA, BusinessWeek, IF Industrie Hannover, and the Chicago Athenaeum Award. Claude is also a regular lecturer and member of design awards committees.
INSPIRATIONThe “No ornamentation” series comments on the systematic over-use of ornamentation in contemporary furniture. The resurgence of decorative elements has been a welcome change from the unflinching minimalism of the early 2000’s but it has also given birth to an array of products that have used such ornamental surface treatments merely to cover up their mediocrity. One & Co applauds the furniture for its simplicity yet chooses to have its cheeky manifesto applied to it. Thus the typographic application results in ornamentation in its own right.
WHY GIVE BACK?It’s obvious that the world we live in is not a balanced one. How can we - the lucky ones - enjoy our prosperity when it seems unat-tainable to others? Giving is one of many avenues to address that biggest of problems. Architecture for Humanity has proven that good design can directly benefit those in immediate need – due to displacement, poverty or catastrophe.
BIOGRAPHYClaude Zellweger, principal and design director at One & Co, is an industrial designer who practices design across a wide array of disciplines in the furniture, sports, and technology world.

INSPIRATIONI love meaningful decoration. Historically, decoration was used as a form of language, as well as a means of denoting the possibility of the human hand, the richness of craft, the workmanship of a period. With automation and the industrial revolution decoration was developed to carry on the spirit of the past, and a way of ‘humanising’ industrial objects. Now in our new digital age we see new digitally inspired decorative language taking place. Oncedecoration spoke of ritual, religious iconography, or spiritual images - now I am interested in it speaking to us about our new spiritualism - the spirit of the digital and information age.
WHY GIVE BACK?I want to give back to “Design Industries Foundation Fighting AIDS”. It is one of the country’s most proactive supporters of direct care for people living with HIV/AIDS. Merging care and commerce and design, since supporters of DIFFA come from all fields of fine design and the visual arts, including: architecture, fashion design, interior design, photography and consumer product design, I feel I can continue to make a contribution to a cause that also has made the world of design a more public subject.

BIOGRAPHYYves Behar, founder of the San Francisco design studio, fuseproject, is focused on humanistic design and the “giving” element of his profession. His goal is to create projects that are deeply in-tune with the needs of a sustainable future, connected with human emotions, and enable self-expression.
For Nicholas Negroponte’s One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) organisation, fuseproject designed the world’s first $100 “XO” laptop aimed at bringing education and technology to the world’s poorest children. Yves’ commercial projects are equally impactful as exemplified by the Herman Miller LEAF Lamp, the Aliph Jawbone and, most recently, Y Water.
Yves’ work has been the subject of two solo exhibitions and resides in the permanent collections of international museums worldwide, including MoMA and the Musee d’Art Moderne/Pompidou Centre. He is the recipient of numerous awards, including the prestigious National Design Award for Industrial Design celebrating design as a ‘vital humanistic tool shaping the world’- awarded by Cooper-Hewitt, Smithsonian National Design Museum. He also received the INDEX: Design to Improve Life, “Community” award for his role in creating the “XO” laptop.
In addition to his duties at fuseproject, Yves is the Chairperson of the Industrial Design program at California College of the Arts (CCA) in San Francisco and he has taken on creative, business-partner roles at Aliph Jawbone and other client-companies.
INSPIRATIONBurst of creativity, of self-expression and ideas is what drives us as creatives, so, how does this idea get expressed in a simple visual? We took a literal pattern of an explosion, and reduced it to square pixels...the offsets and size variations creating an abstract, yet recognisable shape of a burst. The resulting drawing is reminiscent of a bright light-spot, a sun...squint your eyes, and the abstract shapes become something bright and optimistic.
WHY GIVE BACK?I have invested a lot of creative energy and fuseproject studio time in the idea that design can make a difference: beyond the value we create for enterprises and for the users, it is the VALUES we create that have long term impact. This approach has resulted in a few civic projects that we have invested in such as the One Laptop Per Child ($100 laptop) with Nicholas Negroponte, and the New York City Condom and dispensers we have done for the department of Health of NY. Design has a democratising power, as designers we need to use that power.

INSPIRATIONI call my design “Unlock the Cure”. Cancer has affected far too many people in my life and I’m committed to doing something about it. The cure is out there, we just need to find the key. The light-reflective and luminous quality of the metallic finish symbolises hope and optimism.
WHY GIVE BACK?I want to give back to the Cancer research Institute because they are leaders in supporting the development of strategies to treat and prevent cancer. Giving back is important to me because I think we all have a duty to try to leave this world a little bit better than the way we found it.
