AIR.garden pioneers the vision of interior restorative spaces in the heart of London
AIR.garden deploys the biological intelligence of micro-algae to revolutionize the role of nature in the workplace.
At the core of AIR.Garden is microalgae Spirulina, one of the Earth’s oldest and most powerful photosynthetic organisms. Spirulina is ten times more efficient than plants at photosynthesis, making it a game-changer for nature symbiosis in the built environment.
AIR.garden actively captures the CO2 equivalent of five mature trees. It also filters air pollutants and releases oxygen. The filtration process grows raw biomass with super-food nutritional value, including vegetable proteins and vitamins, pioneering the restorative workplace that supports employee’s health while taking care of the health of the planet we share.
Crafted with living, biological and bio-degradable materials, this elegant furniture system is fully reversible. Bespoke 3D-printed components made from algae biopolymers support the borosilicate glass reactor containing the living algae cultures. This demonstrates a fully circular design approach where the biomass grown in the air purification becomes design material.
