Urban Algae Greenhouse in London Blurs the Lines Between Architecture, Humans and NatureHORTUS -- or Hydro Organisms Responsive To Urban Stimuli -- is a crazy new exhibit in London made up of 325 transparent bags of algae hanging from the ceiling via a network of ropes. Long plastic tubes hang from the bags and visitors are instructed to blow into them to feed the algae -- which ranges in color from dark green, to pink, to brown -- with their breath. Devised by the Architectural Association School of Architecture, the crazy algae greenhouse is a way for visitors to use their own carbon emissions to foster new life.1
