Energy Overlays

the long version

On the foreshore of St Kilda with the skyline of Melbourne as a backdrop rises a new kind of power plant - one that merges renewable energy production with leisure, recreation, and education. 'Energy Overlays' provides a roadmap to our sustainable future with essays about the energy transition and beautiful renderings and diagrams of more than fifty designs. The result is a city where the infrastructures that power our world are designed to be reflections of culture, where public parks provide clean electricity to the city grid, and where the art that makes our lives more vibrant and interesting is also part of the solution to climate change. Exhibition: Fed Square, Melbourne, Australia (11.-17.10.2018) / RMIT Design Hub, Carlton, Australia (23.-31.10.2018).
