The company “Planted Foods,” a Zurich-based foodtech spin-off from the ETH, has been conquering Switzerland for a few years with a natural, plant-based meat alternative. The goal ?

In this fourth and last episode, join announcer Nagisa Watanabe as she interviews Zurich-based architect and designer Antonio Scarponi to discover more about hydroponics and his project Eliooo.

What would you do if we told you that you could grow your favourite food at home with little effort and that it could all be built as a weekend DIY project? Well its possible thanks to a DIY system to grow plants at home designed by Antonio Scarponi, architect, designer, founder of Conceptual Devices, and professor at Zurich University of the Arts (ZHdK).

Try it yourself thanks to ELIOOO, an instruction manual that activates some IKEA boxes to grow food with hydroponics.
