The interactive well
Posted on 20. Sep, 2011 by Jonathan Cherry in Design
There is something arresting about the slow and deliberate movement of nature. This well acts and reacts like a plant, which for many is something rather alien and unique, sadly.
The Tropism Well uses natural laws of physics to function. Once it has seen you, the gentle bowing motion is created simply by moving water up and down the stem.
Through the synthesis of nature and technology, these structures explore the relationships we have with objects and spaces that surround us on a daily basis. The simple gestural connection that’s created offers a stimulating and symbolic moment.
No robots – just physics.
