Project Warden is an organism that redefines the relationship between plants and humans. It houses a plant acting as an ideal caretaker for it. It eliminates the plant’s dependency on humans by understanding behavior and communicates through lights to indicate its surveillance over humans.

 

 Warden makes the user make a commitment to it by creating a network relationship with the store where it was purchased. Warden does this for the main purpose of getting support. Hence, if Warden is ignored, it will not be alone. It will communicate with the store as a last resource to find the attention that is lacking from the user. Therefore, if the user fails to care for the plant, Warden will strip the user from gaining all control over the plant's lifespan by asking the store to deprive him of owning a Warden. Thus, preventing humans from damaging nature around them.

Warden has been designed to be pre-assembled before reaching the human, it comprises 4 parts which are 3D printed, the pot, handle, electrical housing unit, and the main body which uses a range of slotting mechanisms to hold all pieces together.
