BLOOM

Produced by Stelton
, 2022

Bloom is a watering can made from powder-coated stainless steel with a matte finish in a deep dark green and a capacity of two litres. The timelessness and strength of the cylindrical shapes was the inspiration to create this modern reinterpretation of the classic watering can, with a hint of the design of the EM77 watering can, which has played a large role in Stelton’s history. With its simple design in which the handle and pouring spout appear to continue as one, functionality meets aesthetics and in addition to its original function it is also a decorative object when not in use. The long, slender pouring spout makes it easy to water even very narrow vases without spills, and the intelligent design ensures that the watering can remains drip-free. A fluted silicone mat sits beneath the watering can to ensure a non-slip grip.

STUDIO

Design means everyday culture. It helps us to enjoy and simplify life. We are fascinated by the process that starts with an idea, becomes substance and hopefully results in a long and pleasurable use for its qualities. That’s how we understand reasonability and sustainability.

Böttcher & Kayser is a Berlin-based studio working in the fields of consumer product, furniture, lighting and interior design. It was founded in 2007 and is running today by Moritz Böttcher and Nikolaus Kayser. The studio is working with international brands such as Anta, Bolia, Böwer, Conmoto, Freistil by Rolf Benz, Gejst, Johanson, Ligne Roset, Mater, Normann Copenhagen, Northern, Prostoria, Rig-Tig, Schönbuch, Softline, Stelton, Vertigo Bird, Wendelbo and Zero. 

While still in their studies they won the iF design award and red dot product design awards. Since founding the studio they were honoured with some of the most prestigious awards, such as several red dot and iF design awards, the Interior Innovation Award and the red dot „best of the best“. Their projects have been published in books and magazines around the world.

Moritz Böttcher (1978) graduated as an industrial designer at the University of Applied Sciences and Arts in Hannover in cooperation with Dornbracht. He worked at npk industrial design in Hamburg and the Netherlands, Barskidesign in Frankfurt and from 2006 to 2008 for Werner Aisslinger in Berlin.

Nikolaus Kayser (1978) is a qualified carpenter and studied industrial design at Muthesius Kunsthochschule in Kiel. After his diploma he worked for three years as a designer at wiege Entwicklungsgesellschaft. His focus there was in the field of high-quality office furniture, especially on chairs for the German manufacture Wilkhahn.
