Laura Boffi’s Air Conditioning with Felt
Posted: November 21st, 2009 | Author: Marshall Wilson | Filed under: Blog | Tags: art, crafty, green | Comments Off on Laura Boffi’s Air Conditioning with FeltWow. Air Conditioning that is low-tech, and crafty all at the same time.
Made by Laura Boffi, a recent graduate from the design academy eindhoven, it uses wool felt from native Sardinian sheep. The wool curtain is to be kept in front of open windows or doors and kept wet via a system of cermaic tanks and a foot pump.
As an added bonus the wet felt can be used to grow plants, a vertical garden.
