Purion is an ion air purifier designed as an integration into a traditional Agungi – or Korean fireplace made of natural stone and soil. While heating, the main device purifies and sterilizes air in the room while portable stick ionizers are charged wirelessly in the Agungi’s opening. Each can then be carried to other spaces in the home where they emit negative ions.

This exploration into the future of oxygen production is a green twist on the oxygen bar that incorporates high-yielding, oxygen-producing algae into a sauna-like structure. Designed for public spaces, Chlorella users can take a quick breather inside and enjoy the healing and relaxing effects. When not in use, it keeps working, contributing oxygen to the external environment.
