Lauren Coleman creates terrariums inspired by the desert landscape native to where she grew up in California. Mixing a lifelong fascination with plants and years of experience working in the flower industry, Coleman formed Lítill, a line of spare and sustainable hand blown terrariums. In part inspired by a wish to create an alternative to the short-lived nature of cut flowers, Coleman's terrariums are a way of expressing the therapeutic presence of plants and flowers, and of bringing a moment of nature into the home.The terrariums of Litill are some sort of cellular container. The worlds are more inspired by the desert than most terrariums that use wet green plants. Litill uses air plants and slow growth cacti from the southwest. Because of this, Litills terrariums are clearer, you can see what's going on inside.
They're more minimal and use sand, miniature retaining walls, rocks and minerals to complete the story. Litill got into terrariums as a sort of response to working in floral shops - seeing the amount of waste and byproduct of that business on a daily basis. There's dyes and other chemicals and processes that Litill didn't like to deal with. Terrariums by their very design are sustainable, Litill was drawn to this idea that it could just sit there with minimal effort and look beautiful. Part of creating that harmony was the combination of elements inside and out - the glass vessel, the plants, the sand. The terrariums of Litill are shown for the first time in Europe at Direktorenhaus. (Photo above: drög | medium (7,1 x 24 cm) $550 | large (24 x 31,8) $750
