该装置被命名为“grown-on-us”，是来自纽约的设计团队balmori associates和gowanus运河管理中心合作下的试验性装置。该项目建设实际上是一次探索性的工程，希望通过植物修复，减少盐分，雨水储蓄来达到清洁水资源的目的，为此，他们在一片水域上创建了一个同样需要灌溉的，多产的水上花园。该项目是由balmori亲自设计，组装并正式启动展览的，位于brooklyn区的gowanus运河上。据悉，这里是美国境内受污染最为严重的水体之一。

该水上花园是由改造过后的金属制的涵管组成。其中有54个试验管，每一个都将不同种类的植物隔离起来（超过30种植物），这些植物会吸收到充足的水分（吸收到的水分是通过植物修复，水分蒸发和凝结来减少水体盐分并储存雨水)，而且，设计团队特地选中了密度较小，可漂浮的建设材料，比如椰子纤维，竹子，菌丝体，以及回收塑料模型等等。

‘grow-on-us’ is an experimental collaboration between new york-based balmori associates and the gowanus canal conservancy. the project is an ongoing research program that focuses on cleaning water through phyto-remediation, desalination, and rainwater collection by means of irrigated, productive floating gardens. balmori designed, fabricated, and launched the floating landscape in brooklyn’s gowanus canal, one of the most polluted bodies of water in the united states.

the floating landscape is composed of transformed metal culvert pipes. each of the 54 test tubes isolate various plants (over 30 were selected), watering conditions (clean water through phyto-remediation, desalinate canal brackish water through evaporation and condensation and collect rainwater), and a variety of buoyant construction materials (coconut fibers, bamboo, mycelium, and matrix of recycled plastic).
