Continue readingKarst, a modular staircase designed for Governors Island in New York, is like a solutional cave for people to see and hear the flowing water, with a water filtering system that brings the sensation of nature into the house, connecting the community of humans and water. Each module has a pocket for placing a bag of crushed oyster shells. The shells composed of calcium carbonate can react with acid rain to help neutralize acidified ocean by absorbing carbon dioxide. In the end, it is a filter system that can blur the boundary between humans and nature on Governors Island.
Continue readingNave is a terracotta tile system combined with water flow, used to cool indoor spaces in desertic environments. The cooling method is based on a local traditional cooling solution, and answers a local need. In the project, the tile transforms form a generic product, back into a local, tailored to place product. The system operates on minimal energy and water consumption and is used for green building. The system has three variations: wall tiles, partition and a totem vertical cooling body.
Continue readingDesulfurization Module is a product that helps businesses to process waste gases. Its mission is to prevent sulfur compounds in exhaust gases from polluting the environment. The production and modularization of the desulfurization project that can further improve the efficiency of the desulfurization and reduces the cost of production and use. It combined with intelligent technology, reasonable arrangement of the use of modules, so as not to waste resources.
Continue readingEtile photovoltaic roofing sheet is a product that combines the functions of roofing and photovoltaic panels. The modular, easy-to-use product allows it to be delivered to almost any type of building. Thanks to integrating PV panels in the roof you benefit on time and costs of installation and provide yourself with aesthetic roofing, which performs an additional function - generates electricity. Etile is based on standard steel tile, which makes it easy to install and it does not require changes in the roof structure.
Continue readingSolarbreaker is a product which makes photovoltaics an integral part of the building. Using this specially designed system it is possible to use the entire building facade for energy production without disturbing its aesthetics. The Solarbraker collection includes fences, balustrades and blinds, covered with solar panels. In this way, using traditional finishing elements of the building, it can be supplemented with an invisible, non-disturbing block of renewable energy sources.
