Plastic Bricks!

[doubletrouble678]

So, in the end of the day, Polli-Brick is a curtain wall system on the outside as well as interior fitting. It comes with embedded LED lights (according to video). But, I don't see the solar power they talk about in the video. Where is that? Where is the power stored? How much power does it take to run this building? There is no doubt that this is a cool building. I love the fact that recycled buildings always look great. I am not LEED trained (my shame). But, is the use of exterior water cooling proven? Has anybody done it before -- cool a building with water from the outside?

Ohhh, how interesting! I didn't even consider the cooling effects. Thanks!

There are solar panels on the roof and on the sides of the second floor entrance.
The black parts on the side of the entrance in both pictures are integrated solar panels.

Very cool! It's great to see the progression, keep the pics coming!

Wow! I must say that it is indeed a labor of love both for the human and environment. The concept is very timely and it such a great way of showing that we can make a master piece out of the things that we usually put into a garbage or the things that might pollute the environment and can be a source of problem in the future. I salute those people behind that because they are really great, creative and intelligent.

Great idea! Good video also...When this Expo Hall is finished, I would love to go see it for myself.
