Urban Crash: Green community space powered by solar energy

Urban Crash: Green community space powered by solar energy: "Attitude:

It would be nice to have a cool shaded community space in every locality that allows you to spend some cool evenings under shade and doubles up as party-space when needed. The design of Urban Crash allows this and a lot more with its solar structure at the center that doubles up as both an energy center and cool rooftop.

Designed keeping in mind the vibrant and varied needs of an urban community, Urban Crash allows you to party, organize community events and hang out with you family without altering the basic structure drastically. The solar rooftop nestling at the center of the stage has photovoltaic cells embedded into a glass structure. This not only offers shade, but also allows the entire structure to produce its own energy.

The power produced by the solar glass roof structure above is stored in the batteries and can be used either for sound effects during a party or even to illuminate the LED lights that are embedded in the glass roof during night. This give the stage of late-evening parties the look of a star-studded sky with various bright LED lights sparkling thanks to the solar power stored during daytime.


The idea of such a structure being the heart of social life in every community and maybe even finding its place in parks is very practical and achievable. Hopefully we can see a prototype of this project out in the open soon.
