Turning every surface into a power station with elegant design
In short: The sun provides more energy to Earth in one hour than humanity consumes in a year. This video explores how solar designer Marjan van Aubel is transforming everyday objects into functional, beautiful power sources.
Van Aubel moves beyond traditional industrial aesthetics by integrating solar cells into common items like tabletops and stained glass windows. Her goal is to make renewable energy accessible and aesthetically pleasing rather than just a utility.
The presentation highlights a vision where every surface can act as a power station, bridging the gap between high-tech energy production and everyday interior design.
