from April 15th to 21st, 2024
The solar pavilion "Building with the sun" aspires to present the design potential of solar energy, transforming solar panels from praxis to poetry. In the age of sustainability, we open a dialogue across tradition and innovation, nature and technology. Photovoltaics used as "right-tech," inspired by technology and design, is the chase of a new beauty. By showcasing the revolutionary solar products Skala (distribuited in Italy by Sogimi), Onyx Solar, Solskin and 3S Swiss Solar Solutions, the space is a seed inspiring creativity to transform our cities.
