Our Vision
“We want to become North America’s leading provider of sustainable, solar-active buildings skins by driving the transition toward zero-energy, energy self-sustainable buildings.”
Buildings are responsible for nearly half of America’s CO2 emissions, producing most of their carbon footprint through heating and cooling. Clearly, we must reduce and ultimately phase out buildings’ CO2 emissions by transforming the way they are designed, built and operated. As building operations become more energy efficient the role of the embodied carbon becomes increasingly more crucial. Thus in order to reach the emission reduction targets set by the Paris Agreement by 2050 it is imperative to address and reduce embodied carbon as well.
We believe that the building skin, the building’s largest “organ”, needs to an interactive, breathing membrane that can absorb and mitigate ambient energy to convert into usable energy to heat, cool and electrify buildings.
It is our mission to provide low-tech, resource efficient solutions through smart design and material choices that promote energy efficiency and renewable energy production through solar interaction.
