Air Cleanser was installed on the roof of the Rosenlew Factory in Pori in December, 2008. It comprised of a geodesic dome inflated by one of the roof’s ventilators. The warm (and yet toxic) air coming from the vent created a suitable temperature for placing houseplants over the period of 24 hours. According to NASA research the selected plants were absorbing factory pollutants and adding a small amount of “fresher” air into the environment.
