Just add water. That’s the idea behind “Hope Forever Blossoming,” a series of plastic, flat-pack flower vases that arrive flat but expand to vases when filled with water. The graphics further enhance the beauty of the plastic and make it look like a real vase.
The mechanism for the vase is the same as a shampoo refill pack. In fact, that’s exactly where the designers took their inspiration from. While working on a label for a refill pack the designer filled it with water to check the appropriate height of the label. When he came back to his desk someone had left a flower in it.
