Sculptural aluminium cylinder planters composed in the round

The sculptural form

Where the boxes are architecture, the cylinders are sculpture.

A round, considered form that softens a scheme and holds a space on its own. Against the angular ranges, the cylinder is the deliberate counterpoint — quiet, sculptural, and confident enough to stand alone.

Spun from the same premium aluminium as the rest of the range, so the material story stays consistent across a project — only the geometry changes. Corten is a considered option where a scheme calls for a weathered palette.

Sculptural aluminium cylinder planter as a feature object
Cluster of aluminium cylinder planters in varied heights

Compose it

Vary height and diameter to compose

The sizes are designed to group. Mix diameters and heights into an arrangement that reads as one considered gesture, not a row of matching pots.

Grouped by design
The held size sets are proportioned to sit together — a tall slim piece beside a low broad one, rhythm without repetition.
Height & diameter
Step heights and widths across a cluster to give a scheme movement and a natural focal point.
Odd numbers
Threes and fives compose more easily than pairs — we can advise a grouping that suits the setout.
One palette
Finish the whole cluster in a single colour to unify, or shade tones for depth.

Where it goes

Three ways to place a cylinder

The considered menu

Curated pieces, not a blank page

Rather than an open-ended custom form, the Cylinder Series is offered as curated standalone pieces and held size sets — designed options that compose well and specify cleanly.

Standalone pieces
A curated selection of single sculptural cylinders, each proportioned as a feature in its own right.
Held size sets
Diameters and heights designed to group — an asset we hold and supply, so clusters resolve without bespoke tooling each time.
Custom on enquiry
Exact custom sizes and proportions are available on enquiry when a scheme calls for something specific.

Share the setout and we’ll present the considered menu with the pieces that suit.

Composed sets of aluminium cylinder planters in held sizes

The held size sets

Standard diameters, made to compose

Four standard diameters, each in four heights — 400, 600, 800 and 1000 mm — proportioned to group into clusters. Larger feature diameters add taller heights. Dimensions in millimetres.

Base and finish detail of an aluminium cylinder planter

Base & finish

Detailed to the setting

Two base conditions and the full powdercoat palette — specified to how and where the piece sits.

Open base
For tree risers set into garden beds — the cylinder frames planting that grows from the ground.
Closed base
For features on hard surfaces — a self-contained planter for terraces, lobbies and paved courtyards.
Finish
Powdercoated aluminium in any colour from the full range, matched across a cluster or a whole scheme.
Considered option
Corten where a weathered palette suits — aluminium remains the hero for longevity and colour.
