The Growth Planter explores how cultural artifacts can exist within everyday environments.

Pokémon cards are typically archived — stored in binders or boxes. This study reframes the card as something that can live in the open, integrated into daily life.

The addition of a plant introduces a second layer: time. Growth is slow, imperfect, and ongoing.

Together, the card and the plant create a quiet tension between memory and change — a composition that evolves with its environment.

about Drop 001

Drop 001 introduces the foundational objects of Slam Dunks Studios.

The Growth Planter sits at the center of this release — bridging lifestyle and nostalgia. It establishes the studio’s approach: taking familiar cultural artifacts and reframing them as intentional objects designed to live in a space.

Produced in small batches, each piece reflects restraint, material honesty, and a focus on everyday interaction.

The Growth Planter frames a Pokémon trading card as a quiet design object within a living plant. It brings modern nostalgia into your everyday space, pairing cultural memory with a simple act of care.

A small composition of growth, routine, and reflection.

The Growth Planter is a small-batch desk object that integrates a plant vessel with a front-facing card display. The card becomes part of the composition — framed within the object rather than stored away.

How should I care for the planter?

  • Intended for indoor use
  • Use plants with light watering needs (succulents, cactus)
  • Remove excess water after watering to avoid moisture buildup
  • PLA is plant-safe but not waterproof — overwatering should be avoided

Can I swap the card?

Yes. Cards can be removed and swapped carefully.
We recommend handling cards by the edges and keeping them sleeved.

Are the cards real?

Yes. All cards are authentic Pokémon trading cards, shipped sleeved for protection.

Collector Notes

A few thoughts from randos who now take their desk setups
slightly more seriously than they probably should.

"I Bought It for the Card. My Partner Thinks It's for the Plant."

Technically both are true. The plant makes the desk feel calm. The card makes it feel like childhood showed up to work.

by Household Diplomacy

"Plants and Nostalgia Are Apparently Good for Productivity"

Somewhere between watering the plant and staring at the card, I somehow finished my work faster.

by Calendar Optimist

"My Desk Looks Like Someone With Hobbies Works Here"

Before this my desk was just a laptop and anxiety. Now it feels curated.

by Remote Worker

"This Is Somehow Both a Planter and a Conversation Starter"

Every Zoom call someone eventually asks about it. Nobody expects Pokémon cards to show up in a plant.
