Pondering the concept of progress helped us establish the argument that the future must be based on the present. We made the abstract concrete by creating a shed built around a pisé wall (vernacular technique) augmented with Grätzel solar cell technology. The wall stores heat by day and distributes it by night. The ripples increase the surface area and give it a radiator-like shape. The wall is the focus of the installation.
