PSN Protective Shell

UV shield

This shield uses a green fluorescent protein to absorb ultraviolet light, and opens and closes like a bionic flower in response to the intensity of the UV index. When the UV light index is high, it acts as a pavilion providing shade. At night, when the UV index is low, it becomes an art installation that glows naturally. This design serves a dual purpose – practical and conceptual.

JURY STATEMENT

This concept creates a moment of well-being for people of all ages while at the same time helping to explain the need to change our ways of living.

WINNER STATEMENT

We would like to express our gratitude to the iF DESIGN TALENT AWARD jury for recognizing our design. We are honored to make a positive contribution to environmental awareness.
