## ■ '3D Printer x Gardening' — A Trending New Culture

In recent years, backed by the popularity of caudex and succulent plants, flower pots made with 3D printers have been attracting attention among gardening enthusiasts. Pots featuring mesh or gyroid structures designed for breathability and drainage have appeared, and '3D printer pots' are steadily establishing themselves as a popular category on handmade markets like minne. They are supported for combining functional performance with free-form designs not found in conventional mass-produced goods.

In the contest held amidst this trend, the skills of 3D modeling creators intersected with interests in gardening and interior design, bringing together 36 highly original works. The results demonstrated possibilities that go beyond conventional figures and prototypes, showcasing a 'new way to use 3D printers'.

## ■ All 36 Works — A Showcase of Unique Creators

The entries this time range widely from practical planter designs to fantasy, architecture, and art. Please take a look at the free-thinking ideas unique to 3D printers that you could never find in ready-made products.

Dinosaurs, mandragoras, ruined cities, ammonite fossils, and even the texture of knitting — a colorful variety of 'one-of-a-kind pots' that can only be realized because of 3D printers have been assembled.

'Fun to look at, practical to make' — It is a contest you can enjoy just by observing, so even if you do not own a 3D printer, please be sure to visit the works page.
