Google Bi/ome
A drop-in solution or the Google Nest Mini. Using agricultural waste + living microorganisms to create a durable, carbon-sequestering and fully home-compostable external hardware.
Positioned at the interface of private life and technology, this biological material blends naturally into the home environment. BI/Ome’s a circular solution that has the potential to mitigate the climate crisis by leveraging the power of scale and Google’s global impact through carbon sequestration. While our current proposal can be immediately implemented and doesn’t require retrofitting or new machinery, we see a future where the Suite could be made fully from this biocomposite.
