Loungers orient the rockers towards the sun so that the flexible photovoltaics attached on the rocker's outer hull can transform solar radiation into the energy needed to charge a cell phone, iPod, or even a laptop. At night, the stored power then illuminates the interior with a cool aqua glow, making for a place to chill out in daytime or at night.
Phil's comment: "Emily, you're to scale!" (as in, you're small enough to look comfortable inside of these rockers) See the website for more artfully-captured photos.
i want to see it at night! it says the photos are by philip ropert?
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen it at night either, although the photos look pretty cool (and somewhat surreal). I noticed the photo credit too - at least these ones during the daytime with me, Yushiro, etc. are by Phil, so at least we can give him credit where credit's due.
