or Call to Order

Stefan Antoni and Greg Truen of SAOTA crafted the Steen planters for Indi­genus, influ­enced by the capti­vat­ing geog­ra­phy of Cape Town and the region’s rich tapestry.

Derived from the Afrikaans language, spoken in South Africa, steen” trans­lates to rock” or stone.” The Steen planters draw inspi­ra­tion from this cultural refer­ence, echoing the low, sculp­tural shapes that resem­ble natural stone formations. 

Just as the rock forma­tions anchor the land, the Steen planters ground and enhance the beauty of the flora they hold. Their low-profile design allows them to merge with the surround­ings, creat­ing a harmo­nious synergy between the natural and the crafted. Expe­ri­ence the capti­vat­ing allure of these planters as they bring the essence of Cape Town’s geology and botan­i­cal trea­sures into your own space.
