The methodology used was an adaptation of the author Gui Bonsiepe, the author argues that the project designer should have relative freedom in the selection of alternatives for the project, being able to make personal decisions due to his professional competence. The method of inspiration and creativity was used Biomimetics, as a source of perception for the development of a product inspired by nature and that could be naturally inserted in the middle of the home garden as a symbolic and decorative object. The shapes and visual elements are derived from the Brazilian biome, with a focus on plants that suit the keywords storage and protection.
