Huus created a 6 person pod with Ebony Easily for the children of North Tulsa to use as an Art Therapy pod. The Biophilic soft space is customizable, the children can choose the colours, sights and smells they want, this aims to create a sense of agency. The pod is an open environment to be filled with the imagination. The pod features integrated projectors which will is filled with content created with and by the students.
The initiative is a long-term plan that will develop alternative behavioural response solutions for at-risk elementary students. reduce the suspension rate for Black public school students, increase fresh food and physical wellness options for low income north Tulsans, and create awareness around the overall mental and physical health benefits when people engage in the process of creative expression.
The initiative aims to help remove barriers associated with families economic status, background, and proximity to solution-based resources to improve equitable outcomes for north Tulsa families through the arts.
The art therapy pod creates a safe space for licensed mental health care professionals and educators to provide holistic services to community members.
Unilever Ideation Pod
Briefed with the task of designing a Ideation Space to inspire Unilever creative teams, Huus created the ‘Sensory Concentration Space’ SCS in 2014. The small enclosure allows users to completely immerse themselves in an environment where there is nothing to distract them from the sensation of their own bodies. Providing stimulus for sound, sight, touch and smell, the interior has been carefully kept free from all distracting elements such as support frames, control panels etc.
The tent-like structure is made from 100% wool felt, which offers high levels of insulation and a soft, biophilic finish. The white material provides a neutral canvas on the inside with hidden color changing LED’s integrated into the flower form ceiling to transform the atmosphere. The environment also features felt discs that can be scented and then scattered beneath the elevated floor to increase smell stimulus and speakers are also included for sound, enabling the SCS to be individually programmed into an infinite number of combinations.
‘With so much emphasis put onto the convenience of online interaction and exploration it is more and more important to cherish the real, the honest and the actual sensation of our bodies existence in a space.’
