Founder of Grow Tropicals Jacob James said: “The installation was inspired by conversations with customers about the best places to position house systems. Understanding how plants grow in nature can inform us of how they grow in their house. We do this with a shared screen that shows how plants grow in nature and how they can grow in the house.”
