Sometimes we’re just too busy to get outside and enjoy the benefits of nature. Sometimes the weather isn’t playing ball (especially here in the UK!). Luckily there are a number of cool gadgets, either available now or possibly in the future, that let you bring the power of nature into your office and onto your desk.

The project, completed for just $10, can be seen in detail here.

This Kickstarter project was unfortunately unsuccessful but may re-emerge in the future.
EcoQube Air
“Improve your quality of life, add healthy air, be more productive, and grow plants easily” is the description of this desktop greenhouse available for pre-order on Kickstarter.

Pocket Sized Greenhouse – “Lives Grass”
When you pour water into the top of Lives Grass, it slowly runs down to the plant using drip irrigation without causing over watering or dehydrating your plant.
There’s also a hole at the bottom of the device that releases the plant’s oxygen for air purification. Minimal effort wellness benefits of plants in your office!
