This project explores how design can foster meaningful connections between people and nature by integrating natural systems into indoor environments. Grounded in research on well-being, biodiversity, and symbiosis.

My objective was to design a beginner-friendly product that supports plant growth and promotes relaxation through a calming, biophilic experience.

“We will never be healthy, satisfied, or fulfilled if we live apart and alienated from the environment from which we evolved.”

Objective:

To develop a beginner-friendly, biophilic product for indoor spaces.

The final design will address emotional needs by providing access to nature in indoor environments and filter water effectively through multistage filtration.

This is the most beginner friendly option on the market it easily integrates with existing aquarium set up & has intuitive features to ensure both plants and fish in system are healthy.
