Fount Design Join the list

BW 1 · Pre-launch

The plants keep drinking while you’re away.

Push a stake into the pot. A clear cylinder of water hangs over the plant and drips onto the soil until it’s empty.

BW 1 by Fount Design: a charcoal hook staked in a terracotta pot of basil, holding a clear cylinder of water that drips onto the leaves.

A week away shouldn’t kill the basil.

How it works

  1. Stake it. The hook goes into the soil beside the plant. Only the arm stays above the dirt.
  2. Fill the cylinder. A straight clear tank, the same width as the body, hangs from the hook.
  3. Leave it. Water drips from the reservoir onto the plant until the cylinder runs out.

Want BW 1 when it’s real?

The list is the test. If people join, we make it. If they don’t, we don’t build a pile of them.
