Description

FIG. 1 is a top view of a set of modular parallelepipeds for displaying plants, showing the three basic elements; a small cubic parallelepiped, a large cubic parallelepiped, and a rectangular parallelepiped with square base, wherein the large cubic parallelpiped is twice the size of the small cubic parallelpiped, and the rectangular parallelpiped square base has dimensions equal in size to a face of the large cubic parallelpiped, with the rectangular dimension being twice the length of the square base dimension, and wherein the bottom, front, and rear views of each element are identical to the top view.

FIG. 2 is a typical side view of the three elements, wherein both sides of each basic element are identical.

FIG. 3 is a top view of a second embodiment of a set of modular parallelepipeds for displaying plants, showing the three basic elements, wherein the surface composition representative of different classes of environmental surface veneer finishes (e.g., conventional wood, masonry, and solid paint color) is denoted by the herringbone pattern, and wherein the bottom, front, and rear views of each element are identical to the top view; and,

FIG. 4 shows a typical side view of the three elements, denoting the surface composition representative of different classes of environmental surface veneer finishes by the herringbone pattern, wherein both sides of each basic element are identical.

The set of modular parallepipeds for displaying plants are intended to be combined in various orientations to create plant display settings.
