“At POTR, we believe good design should make life easier and lighten our footprint on the planet. We started with a simple idea — a plant pot that actually helps plants (and people) thrive — and we’re excited to keep reimagining how we all grow at home.”Andy, POTR Founder and Designer
Meet the team
A compact team of design thinkers, engineers and brand wizards. Say hello to the people making plant care smarter (and more fun).
Andy - Founder and Designer
Trained as a Product Designer at the Glasgow School of Art, Andy has spent his career obsessed with reimagining everyday objects. When he’s not folding prototypes or testing plant care hacks, you’ll find him outdoors - surfing, skateboarding and snowboarding.
Eilidh - Marketing Director
Eilidh is behind all things marketing at POTR, combining her brand marketing and retail background to connect people with products that make a difference. Outside of work, you'll find her researching the best places to eat and shop on her next city break.
Joe - Product Design Engineer
Equal parts engineer and problem-solver, Joe is POTR's resident whizz-kid. Bringing together advanced mathematics and origami to develop the next generation of plant care. When he’s not cracking formulas or sketching, you’ll likely find him playing the drums.
Tara - Marketing Executive
Tara is POTR's Gen Z spark. When she's not studying at the Glasgow School of Art, she's crafting reels, content and scrolling on TikTok for the latest social trends. Tara is in charge of vibes in the POTR office, making sure the energy is always as fresh as our plants!
Our heritage
Our roots are in flat-pack innovation — the same principles that transformed furniture and homeware into accessible, shippable, and adaptable essentials. What started as simple paper origami experiments has transformed into a thriving range of planters and vases.
Our mission
By applying flat pack innovation to growing systems, we are reimagining how people can connect with plants, no matter where they live, regardless of space, access or experience. Every POTR product is lightweight, low-impact, and built to last, embodying our belief that sustainability is not an add-on, but a design starting point.
