smarTown

The intangible beauty of energy, in the natural setting of the Orto Botanico di Brera

For the FuoriSalone 2018, from 16 to 28 April the magazine INTERNI presents the exhibition HOUSE IN MOTION, in three urban locations for a total of over thirty experimental installations. One of the most spectacular is smarTown, created by young architects from SOS - School of Sustainability under the supervision of MCA – Mario Cucinella Architects, and produced with the support of ENI Gas e Luce in partnership with Hive, at Orto Botanico di Brera. 

Visitors are encouraged to immerse themselves in the greenery against the backdrop of an imaginary city inhabited by over 700 small luminous and ‘smart’ housing units, which become the protagonists of a dynamic space in which the interaction of the new devices of the Smart Home influences the configuration of the urban system. A place with an accent on technology but also on empathy, triggering reflections on responsible use of energy and the new tools for its implementation.

For the occasion, ENI Gas e Luce presents, in Italy, the partnership with Centrica Hive Limited, leading to the creation of an ecosystem of devices for innovative Smart Homes, based on good design and simplicity of use.
