Supertrees Singapore: Technology mimicking nature
A magnificent garden of solar trees in Singapore! Inspired by nature, the supertrees collect rainwater, convert sunlight into energy, and used both to vent hot air and to cool circulated water. Covered in plants, they also serve as vertical gardens, with crowns that provide shade and shelter. These tree-like structures are a fusion of nature, creativity, and technology!
