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 , 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.
