We spend about 90 percent of our time indoors. How can we still be in nature without leaving?

Be honest – how much time do you spend staring at a screen every day? Our growing reliance on technology and ongoing trend towards urban living, means many of us are spending ever less time outdoors. At the same time we are increasingly facing difficulties to access nature experiences. In particular when considering moving within reasonable radius of residence or workplace.

But we humans have an innate longing to seek nature experiences. And spending time in nature is evidently beneficial to our well-being. So how can we still manage to experience nature?  

Imagine a building where you can walk on grass inside. Where you can see clouds pass by when looking at the ceiling. Think of a room without any windows where you still can feel the sunlight still touching your skin...

This is my dream of an AR-application that allows you to immerse in nature instantly. It is an experiment that visualizes customized nature scenes within an indoor environment. AR-tools are getting more sophisticated every day. Soon you will be able to satisfy your urge to spend time in nature – no matter where you are or what you do.
