Preview of Aroid Pillar
By Krypto
Complexity
Medium
MAIN PURPOSE: Give climbing house plants a trunk to root into
A moss pole that behaves like a tree trunk for monsteras and philodendrons. Fill the square tube with damp sphagnum; aerial roots find the vertical slots and grow in. Each segment threads onto a bamboo cane through the floor, so the pillar grows with the plant one section at a time.

Preview of Strata Gauge
By Krypto
Complexity
Medium
MAIN PURPOSE: Read soil layers in a settling jar
A sleeve for the gardener’s soil jar test. Shake a scoop of soil in a 500 ml jar of water, stand it in the sleeve and let it settle into strata as rocks do: sand in a minute, silt in hours, clay over a day. Read each layer through the window against the millimetre marks to find your soil type.

Preview of Clint & Grike
By Krypto
Complexity
Medium
MAIN PURPOSE: Hold pens, cards and a phone in a karst block
A desk block after a limestone pavement, where rain dissolves deep cracks called grikes between square blocks called clints. Here the clints are pen and clip cells, two 4 mm grikes hold cards, notes and envelopes, and the wide grike across the middle stands a phone.

Preview of Seed Crystal
By Krypto
Complexity
Medium
MAIN PURPOSE: Hang seed crystals in a jar of solution
A cap for growing crystals at home. Turn it over a wide jar of hot saturated alum, salt or sugar solution, tie a seed crystal to each of three threads through the holes and let them hang at different depths. The engraved labels keep track of which solution grows which habit.

Preview of Caddis
By Krypto
Complexity
Medium
MAIN PURPOSE: Decorate a pen pot with found treasures
A pencil pot children finish themselves, after the caddisfly larva that builds its case from pebbles, sand and shell. The wall is covered in shallow round sockets: glue in beach pebbles, sea glass, beads or shells found on walks and the pot becomes a record of where they have been.

Preview of Strobilus
By Krypto
Complexity
Medium
MAIN PURPOSE: Read the humidity from a real pine cone
A pine cone hygrometer. Cone scales open as air dries and close when it is damp, a movement with no power or electronics. Sit a real cone in the cup against the back board and read how far its scales reach: past the WET marks, past the DRY marks, or in between.

Preview of Illicium
By Krypto
Complexity
Medium
MAIN PURPOSE: Lay out eight spices before cooking
A spice palette for cooking shaped like star anise, the pod of eight boat-shaped carpels round a central axis. Each carpel is a well for one ground spice or seed, so a whole curry or bake is measured out before the pan is hot.

Preview of Aqueduct Rail
By Krypto
Complexity
Medium
MAIN PURPOSE: Carry pens on top and route cables through arches
A desk rail built like a Roman aqueduct. Pens and pencils ride in the channel on top, while three arches run right through the piers so charging cables pass underneath and stay put, and a phone charger or power brick hides inside the hollow piers between the arches.

Preview of Night Cell
By Krypto
Complexity
Medium
MAIN PURPOSE: Put the phone to bed charging out of sight
A tall quiet cell where the phone sleeps. Drop it in at bedtime: it stands on two inner ledges with the charging plug hanging free below, the cable leaves by a notch at the back, and the arcaded front shows nothing of the screen, so the phone charges out of sight and out of reach.

Preview of Riad Valet
By Krypto
Complexity
Medium
MAIN PURPOSE: Sort jewellery round a courtyard for watch and glasses
A courtyard house for the things you take off at night. Arched windows pierce all four walls, an inner wall makes a covered gallery round the edge for rings, earrings and chains, and the open courtyard in the middle takes the watch, glasses and wallet, like a riad built around its garden.
