Architects Simone Giostra & Partners have designed the carbon-neutral Greenpix media wall which will surround the Xicui Entertainment Complex in Beijing, China.
Featuring the largest color LED display worldwide and the first photovoltaic system integrated into a glass curtain wall in China, GreenPix transforms the building envelop into a self-sufficient organic system, harvesting solar energy by day and using it to illuminate the screen after dark, mirroring a day’s climatic cycle. Arup provided engineering services for the project.
For us architects out there, there are some nice details and also diagrams explaining how it works.
