It is as the name suggests -- an installation that provides an infinite amount of inspiration as the [mycelium bar](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/duk-series) is inspired by the shapes and textures on shells. Usually, fungi are often seen growing out of the decomposing materials. The experimental installation actually [grows the mushrooms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mushroom-grower) and will only be available to visit temporarily. Visually, the mushrooms are under a spotlight and are seen stemming right out of the middle of a collection of fungi. The dynamic structure that surrounds it has rounded edges and exudes the metaphor that represents the possibilities that are stagnant when we dismiss traditional ways of thinking.
