With increased urban development, we are living further away from nature than ever before. We aim to bring green spaces to urban residents by utilizing hydroponic technology—a technology that provides the essential needs to a plant using an artificial environment. The industrial scale of existing hydroponic technologies are out of reach to most consumers. We aim to create a personal hydroponic system that increases green spaces in small scale urban residential environments through a product that is both functional and aesthetic. We hope to challenge the current standard for where and how natural ecology can exist in an urban residential area.
