User-friendly, decorative & sustainable
The smart solution for a flourishing home
Boum 3 is a revolutionary plant care system from Switzerland. Elegant planters are automatically watered by a solar-powered water tank. Sensors notify the app when the tank needs fertilizing or refilling. Combined with sustainable soil, this allows plants to grow on balconies and patios with minimal effort—but with high yields and enjoyment .

Ludwig could probably build rockets, but instead he uses his talent to help you reconnect with nature. An ETH graduate with a PhD in seismology, his early career saw him create three-dimensional models of the Earth based on earthquake data and he was part of the team that launched Tracktics, a wearable for football players. After designing an irrigation system for himself with the help of his father, he realized his true passion lies in bringing joy to people by helping them.
