SmartFlower, the innovative solar energy system that unfolds and tracks the sun like a real flower, has been selected for inclusion in the Garden of Ideas at Milan Design Week 2025, one of the world’s most renowned events celebrating design, creativity, and innovation. The Garden of Ideas, curated by Vanity Fair Italia, brings together visionary projects that seamlessly combine sustainability, beauty, and forward-thinking design.
Being featured in this prestigious setting highlights SmartFlower not just as a source of clean energy, but also as an icon of solar design. Its unique structure and kinetic movement transform it into a sculptural piece that stands as a powerful symbol of the urgent need for sustainable solutions. Unlike traditional solar panels, SmartFlower offers a dynamic solar experience, captivating viewers with its elegant unfolding motion as it follows the sun throughout the day for optimal energy capture.
