Moss

The project Moss aims to restore forests that have been ravaged by forest fires through the use of a Moss Stamp and a Moss Incubation Room for cultivating moss. This innovative solution allows individuals, such as volunteers and hikers, to actively engage in environmental conservation efforts by directly participating in the process of planting moss. By simply stamping the moss, participants can contribute to the creation of a sustainable world and help restore the natural ecosystem.

Photosynthetic City

Photosynthetic City is a project designed to alleviate the burden of fossil energy on the environment. The photosynthetic city consists of two parts. The first part is the solar utility installed on the roof part. The second part is the biomass power generation device, which uses the plant waste planted on the side of the building to provide fuel for the CHP steam turbine power generation device to generate electricity. In this way, the impact on the environment is reduced, and a large number of plantings are also beneficial to the environment.
