Twool is a multifunctional set of tools for gardening. This is a kit of two tools that perform four basic functions. These are trowel, transplanter, rake and fork. This set is designed for balcony and indoor gardening. The tools are adapted by size and function to plants grown in jars. The goal was to give a breath of personality to a gardening tool and present gardening as a game, rather than a burden.

​

Seeking for the ideal form for the tool, I was inspired by the plants themselves and their organic forms. These aesthetics allow the tool to assimilate with plants, without disturbing the harmony of garden.

​

This unusual organic form is a kind of hommage to all improvised tools that people use in small gardens and as such leaves for the user to decide how to use it. To make this possible, the tool's grip is ergonomicly designed so it fits the hand how ever you turn it. It's concave-convex shape allows the assembly of the two tools which makes storing easier.

​

The basic functions: Trowel is an essential tool in the garden. It is used  for digging and transfer of soil or sprouts that is needed in cultivation of all plants. It has relief designation to measure the depth of the soil which serves gardeners when transplanting plants because it is important to know how deep to plunge in order to avoid damaging the roots of plants. Dibber is used to make holes in the ground for planting seeds and sprouts. Rake is good for editing the soil around the plant, while the fork is used for loosening the soil.
