Mossy is a product created to reduce pollution as well as educating people about environmental challenges. It is made of two independent parts. First, a lower section containing moss and an internal irrigation system that keeps it healthy. Second, an upper section containing a filter and a mechanism to maintain the filter clean. The product is interactive: a button activates the filtering system, whilst launching on a screen information about the impact of air pollution.
