I’m really impressed by the generation of more sustainable structures popping up across the globe, one of the recent ones including the Energy Roof seen above. Stretching across two buildings, it is an energy-generating canopy of sorts.
Designed by COOP HIMMELB(L)AU, the Energy Roof is purported to power the city of Perugia, Italy. Not by accident, the Energy Roof occupies the entry way into a gallery showcasing the history of Perugia.
