So I think there's a number of different things that we can do to naturize our spaces.
Yeah, it was pretty cool.
So in Detroit Metro Airport, kind of like off to the side, there's the Westin Hotel.
And I remember my dad telling me that it's an interesting spot to check out.
So I remember taking the escalator down and it was incredible.
They had these fake bamboo trees that were out in the lobby of the Westin Hotel and also some water features.
And even though it was fake, it almost felt like you were in a different world.
And you could feel almost the restorative power of these natural elements, even though a lot of them were fake.
And so every time that I would go to the Detroit airport, I would often try to go to the Westin Hotel.
And there was a little actually TSA security gate there.
So you could go through security there.
And I would try to do that on a regular basis so I could get exposed there.
to that kind of very interesting natural environment that they had created in the lobby of the Westin Hotel.
Yes, and I've seen it too.
Even airports now are starting to have kind of green walls.
Oftentimes it's also kind of near security, and I'm wondering if they have it in there to kind of calm people down as they're waiting in line to go through these security checks.
So I think...
A lot of these airport designers are having the intuition that incorporating some nature into the airport is going to be beneficial.
And people have tried to do similar things in hospitals where, again, oftentimes in hospitals, the environment requires to be sterile.
But it has to be sterile.
