Phytobench is a seating element that seeds and grows phyto-remediative volunteer plant communities that repair damaged soil ecosystems, providing a natural landscape for green public space and an array of functional seating for public use. Phytobench greens the soil remediation process by eliminating the need for expensive and polluting processes of chemical treatment, machinery excavation, and disposal typically used in brownfield restoration. It provides a low-impact, local cure that distributed strategically, creates natural green space and fosters urban sustainability through an innovative, and productive object. Phytobench is made of a CNC cast, soluble, seed-embeded composite and milled, recycled composite lumber.

Softshelf is inspired by the idea of creating a bookshelf that deforms the rational cellular grid in order to create a custom occupiable, differentiated, and soft space for the storage of books and other objects. It is fully customizable by manipulating five customer controls embedded in a parametric design system: overall size of the shelf, overall geometric effect of the shrinking and expanding of boxes, the strength of this geometric effect on the entire shelf system, the curvature shape of the shelf, and the stretched shape of the boxes. Softshelf takes advantage of the rigidity and fluidity of wood combined with the precision of CNC milling technology to create a monolithic and continuous form, sturdy yet geometrically complex, and ultimately innovative.
