Biophilic interiors, where people are more connected to nature, are becoming really popular. Just everyone wants plants on the work desk and leafy green sprouting out right in their kitchen. I haven’t really jumped onto the bandwagon primarily for two reasons: The mess of dealing with mud and fertilizers and the constant need for watering. Now, with the world’s first desktop aeroponic plant ecosystem that could stand to change for me, and for many like me, who have been holding themselves back for some reason, err… laziness.
With the new smart mist planter, growing plants becomes something you can constantly see, touch, and truly enjoy day in a day out, while the plants grow right in front for your eyes. The system comprises a transparent chamber, a planting panel, and an adjustable light. It permits the plant to grow floating in mid-air, without soil or water; just with nutrient-rich mist, keeping the roots hydrated to grow life beautifully, right at your desk, without you having to even move a muscle.

Dubbed the Izestee, this is a no-soil, no-pest, no-mess planter which grows plants, works as a passive humidifier, and functions as a desktop lamp. The 3-in-one desktop aeroponic plant cultivator is designed to use ultra-fine mist instead of soil and automatically control every stage of growth – from seed to bloom – as it happens with its smart and automatic scheduling.
Each Izestee comes with seven planting baskets, designed to seed and provide a structured place for germination. Beneath, a see-through chamber provides a nice view of the roots growing in real time. It’s here that the roots are hydrated with mist and they grow dramatically healthier. The mist, along with nurturing the roots gently, escapes the unit and humidifies the room it’s placed in.
The system comprises three lighting modes, with different brightness levels, which can adapt to the different moods, moments and spaces. The lights can change color and brightness levels from a rotating effect during the day to a single color by night. The different light modes inside the chamber are controlled using a tactile button on the façade of the Izestee, just above its base.
In addition to nutrients and light, the chamber of the planter is also provided with a built-in heating system, which has a maximum temperature of 45 degrees. The heating system maintains a constant temperature, which is visible on the LED display for real-time temperature monitoring. The small digital display sits in the middle of the control panel and features the temperature controller to its left.
When the plant has grown above the planting panels, the adjustable light takes over. The full-spectrum light can bend and tilt at any angle or height required and mimics the sun’s light for indoor growth of the plants. In addition to plant lighting, this adjustable light with adjustable brightness levels can be used as a desk lamp or night light.

On a rocky outcrop in Scotland’s Outer Hebrides, where Atlantic winds batter the coastline and ancient Lewisian Gneiss stone shapes the landscape, sits Caochan na Creige. This modest one-bedroom home has just been crowned RIBA House of the Year 2025, Britain’s most prestigious residential architecture award. Perched in a sheltered inlet in the Bay of Harris with panoramic views across the Minch to Skye, the house represents a remarkable achievement in contemporary residential design, celebrated for its sensitivity to place, exceptional craftsmanship, and resilience in one of Europe’s most challenging environments.
The name translates as “little quiet one by the rock,” a poetic description developed with landscape architect John Murray, author of ‘Reading The Gaelic Landscape.’ It’s a fitting moniker for a house that seems to grow organically from its surroundings. The house’s irregular, angled plan emerged from a philosophy of “working with the landscape rather than against it.” The foundations carefully avoided areas of incredibly hard rock, allowing the building to settle naturally into its site. This approach created a sculptural form that appears to be part of the landscape itself, with an enigmatic presence that recalls defensive structures and castles while maintaining an intimate scale.
Designer: Izat Arundell
Eilidh Izat and Jack Arundell, co-founders of architectural practice Izat Arundell, designed and built their own home entirely by hand. Working alongside Eilidh’s brother Alasdair Izat, a furniture maker, and their friend Dan Macaulay, a stonemason, they broke ground in January 2022. The build took 18 months, during which the small team battled through nine named storms in one of Europe’s most unforgiving environments. This extraordinary feat of ambition and resilience transformed a tight budget and challenging conditions into opportunities for innovation and craftsmanship.
The sculptural form is clad in the same Lewisian Gneiss rock on which it sits, sourced from a quarry less than five miles away. This ancient stone, billions of years old, gives the house a timeless quality that connects it deeply to its surroundings. A concrete parapet with exposed Lewisian Gneiss aggregate caps the stone walls, creating a contemporary counterpoint to the traditional material. The stone is used full thickness as exterior cladding, demonstrating a commitment to authenticity and durability. Together with hardwood windows, these material choices create a contemporary air to the design while respecting the vernacular traditions of the island.
Inside, soft angles weave throughout the home, creating spaces that flow into one another while remaining defined, inspired by the gently shaped blackhouses’ vernacular to the island. An entrance porch, utility area, and skylit bathroom occupy the center of the plan, with a bedroom protruding to the northwest and a living room and kitchen filling the eastern half, maximizing those dramatic sea views. Despite its modest size, the house feels luxurious in its connection to the surrounding landscape, with every spatial decision carefully considered to enhance the experience of living in this remote and spectacular location.
The project represents a growing movement of ultra-contemporary homes in Scotland’s remote landscapes, following RIBA House of the Year 2018 winner Lochside House and the RIAS Andrew Doolan Best Building in Scotland Award winner Cuddymoss. David Kohn, chair of the RIBA House of the Year Award 2025 jury, praised the unanimous decision: “It addressed every issue – challenging climatic conditions, the relationship to vernacular architecture and a tight budget – with a rare mixture of sensitivity and boldness.” Caochan na Creige has also won the Laurence McIntosh Interior Design Award at the 2025 RIAS ceremony and features on the cover of ‘New Scottish Houses: Contemporary Architecture and Living in the Landscape’ by Isabelle Priest. It proves that exceptional architecture doesn’t require vast resources, just vision, determination, and a deep respect for place.

Watching a dog struggle to walk is quietly heartbreaking. Movement, for animals, is not just mobility. It is freedom, confidence, and joy. The Pet Power Assistive Exoskeleton was born from this understanding, blending emotional insight with advanced engineering to create a rehabilitation solution that truly listens to the animal it supports.
The project’s inspiration traces back to a news report on prosthetic limbs designed for disabled pets. While well-intentioned, many of these solutions revealed clear shortcomings. They were passive, rigid, and often uncomfortable, offering limited support beyond basic mobility. This realization became deeply personal when the designer cared for their own dog after a hindlimb injury. Seeing firsthand how difficult recovery could be for an animal exposed a larger issue. Modern rehabilitation technology has evolved rapidly for humans, yet animal care continues to rely on simplified, often outdated aids. This gap sparked a mission to extend intelligent, humane rehabilitation into veterinary practice.
Designer: Leijing Zhou
Instead of forcing movement, the Pet Power Assistive Exoskeleton focuses on understanding intention. Borrowing principles from active exoskeleton systems used in stroke rehabilitation, the device uses surface electromyographic sensors to read muscle signals from a dog’s healthy forelimb. As the dog initiates movement, these signals are analyzed in real time to predict how the impaired hindlimb should move. The system then activates precise mechanical assistance, synchronizing the injured leg with the dog’s natural gait.
This approach transforms rehabilitation into a cooperative process rather than a mechanical correction. The dog leads, and the technology follows, creating movement that feels natural, fluid, and instinctive. By aligning assistance with intention, the exoskeleton reduces strain, encourages correct gait patterns, and supports faster, more confident recovery.
Personalization is central to the design philosophy. Every dog has a unique body, posture, and injury profile, so the exoskeleton is created using advanced 3D printing based on individual body scans. This ensures a tailored fit that distributes weight evenly and avoids discomfort. Carefully selected materials such as lightweight structural components, soft memory foam padding, and non slip contact surfaces prioritize comfort, stability, and long term wearability. This makes the device suitable not only for clinical rehabilitation but also for everyday use.
Developed between 2023 and March 2025 in Hangzhou, the project required extensive research and experimentation. One of the greatest challenges was interpreting muscle signals in animals, an area with little existing data or standardized methods. Translating raw biological signals into reliable movement predictions demanded repeated field testing, iterative modeling, and close observation of real canine behavior. Equally complex was balancing strength and comfort, designing a structure robust enough to assist movement while remaining gentle and non restrictive.
Ultimately, the Pet Power Assistive Exoskeleton represents more than a technical innovation. It reflects a shift in how we think about animal care, recognizing pets not as passive recipients of aid, but as active participants in their own recovery. By merging empathy with intelligent technology, this project restores more than mobility. It protects dignity, independence, and the simple joy of movement.
