Since the beginning of humanity, the distance between man and nature
has kept increasing. As man’s scientific knowledge increased, his relation to
nature changed: from a generous hostess, She became a mere distant food
provider. Inside our cities, that distance is even greater, and vegetal elements
are just anecdotic or decorative.
How then can we recreate a sensual
relation to vegetal within our apartments ?
 The
Human Nature
project aims therefore at reintroducing plants in the
urban housing, so that inhabitants could fully enjoy the benefits of
nature.
From the lounge to the loo, there are four concepts for different
rooms. Their purpose is to awake our five senses, and to develop a new
relationship between man and plants, for them to be more than mere
decoration.
Furthermore, those projects have been built
around sustainable development (water and energy savings, reduction of
greenhouse effects) and are very easy to maintain. |
