mushroom ahu by sungi kim from korea
designer's own words:
as the air handling unit (AHU) also been touched by design?
The designs of air conditioners change day by day but what about AHUs?
Every once in a while during a stroll you might catch a sight of a white box discharge a spurt of air and you have to pass by inhaling the humid air.
Presently, the designs of air condition systems give utmost importance to the satisfaction of only their customers. In designing air conditioners, the component of being in harmony with its surroundings is not considered.
If there was a mushroom shaped "AHU" spouting from one side of a building in a city full of six-sided solids instead of a square shaped "white box", couldn't this also be considered something "green"?
