If you’re like us and have trouble keeping houseplants alive, here’s a beautiful alternative. Inspired by papercraft and Japanese origami folding techniques, Papelants are paper plants that spring to life without the use of glue, tape, scissors or any tools at all. Intrinsically maintenance-free, they come in a number of different varieties and can stand upright or be hung from walls.
Papelants is a collaboration between Japanese design agency Flatroom and Bog Craft, a manufacturer of paper products. Their paper plants are available online for 1540 yen ($14 usd) per piece.
