“Enduring, not ultimate form”: from “Industrieform” to Red Dot (1980 - 1997)
Solar-Powered Air Conditioning
SOLAR-POWERED AIR CONDITIONING embeds miniature solar panels into yarn, creating fibre batteries that generate electricity. The modular design includes a curtain storage module that stores solar energy when extended and saves space when retracted. Slim and lightweight, it omits traditional parts like evaporators and motors, reducing production and part costs. Detachable curtain modules suit various window sizes, enhancing user convenience.Red Dot Award: Design Concept | Concept | Heating and Air Conditioning
