Prototype 1

Sunday marked the implementation of our first prototype, an experimental design of sorts. After discussing the joy of pea shoots, we stumbled upon a beautiful little surprise.

A perfect plant to test our ideas out. We want to see
a. if the pea shoot thrives
b. how people interact with our planters

We built a small planter to hold our exceptional sprout, and left it outside to be seen, touched, or even taken.





















The site:9th street and third avenue in Brooklyn




No instructions were left with the prototype. Before we give any instructions, we're curious to just see what happens. Round two will include an instruction booklet and, hopefully, an entirely different outcome.
