    the technology could be adapted to back project movies etc. then the car park can become a good old fashioned drive in cinema.

    energy neutral?

  2. bad Says:

    bad lighting doesn’t make up for bad architecture

  3. Név* Says:

    is this building really just one wall? ;)
    Some pictures from the elevations, ineriors please! Or this is the only thing in this building that worths a mention, becouse, however nice it is, i don’t think it enough.

  4. scruces Says:

    the architecture is the lighting

  5. FBot Says:

    Bad you are Bad

    This project is good

  6. Skeptic Says:

    “offering the most radical example of sustainable technology applied to an entire building’s envelope to date.”

    That’s pretty infuriating. Forgetting for a moment that batteries for storing PV power is incrediably wasteful (get that thing feeding the grid, damn it)… how is it sustainable to produce sooo much more vanity, spectacle lighting than they need? How much energy went into manufacturing that wall and how much on up keep.

    The BS blatant abuse of the term “sustainable” makes me puke in my mouth a little.
