Carlo Ratti Associati & Italo Rota Create an Energy Park
'Feeling the Energy' is an energy park installation that was envisioned and built through the collaborative efforts of Carlo Ratti Associati and architect Italo Rota. Situated in the Brera botanical garden, this sculptural activation was launched during Milan Design Week and it welcomed visitors to walk through and learn about "different types of sustainable and renewable energy."
Carlo Ratti Associati and Italo Rota used over 500 meters of copper pipe for their energy park. These elongated materials were bent in order to "create arches and sculptures that support solar and kinetic energy generation devices." There are a total of six different installations in the Brera botanical garden. The energy that these sculptures generate during the day is used at night to illuminate the space.
