Mutiara Ayu Larasati

This artwork is a cabinet designed to house an aquarium tank containing micro-algae, creatively blending nature with functional Interior Design. Serving as an indoor alternative to traditional greenery, the microalgae play a similar role to trees by absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen, promoting a healthier indoor environment. The cabinet’s design merges aesthetic and ecological purpose, with transparent elements that showcase the microalgae and allow viewers to observe this sustainable system at work. Acting as both an art piece and an eco-friendly solution, it brings a natural, refreshing atmosphere to indoor spaces and demonstrates how nature-inspired innovations can be integrated seamlessly into interior element.
