Despite what you might suspect, we’re not just about Bambi lamps and Fox scarves here at CultureLabel, oh no. When required, we can do gadgets, we can do tech, and now we are proud to announce, we can do NASA space technology with the super cool Andrea Air Filter from super/collider. That’s right.

Back in the day (the 80s) scientists began to look at using the power of living plants to naturally rid the air of harmful pollutants. NASA’s Biohome project found that fan-assisted air circulation through plant foliage in space stations could help scrub the air of both carbon dioxide and toxins in the air.

Now from our pals at super/collider comes the Andrea Air Filter, which uses the work of the NASA technologists to purify your home. Andrea draws polluted air in, passes it across a plant’s leaves and, in doing so absorbs and metabolizes those nasty-assed pollutants that give us chesty coughs and the like. It’s been designed to perfection by Matthieu Lehanneur whose other projects also show in MoMa NY and San Fran so it looks pretty good too.

Do you think if we’re detoxing the very air that we breathe, it doesn’t matter that we fell off the January abstinence wagon on, like, 4th Jan??
