Many hospitalized patients are not able to go outdoors whenever they want to. Hospital rooms can feel empty, dry, and dull. The HumidiFlower: a humidifier, light reflector, infused with essential oils, will bring the outdoors inside. 

When one stays indoors for a long period of time, the effects may consist of insomnia, anxiety, and depression. Most hospitalized patients do not have the option or opportunity to go outside. Our goal with the HumidiFlower is to bring the freshness of the outdoors to the patient. The base of the Flower is a vase that holds the humidifier. The mist carries through the stem of the flower and fogs out of the center. The petals of the flower are infused with essential oils, which the patient can use as perfume, or to calm themselves down with the scent of lavender. LED lights reflect off of the metallic petals, and create the illusion of sunlight, in the bleak room. A hospitalized patient should not feel trapped. The HumidiFlower aims to cancel out that feeling.
