Grow bag is a pillow shaped pot for plants made of PVC foam, that is designed by Martino D’Esposito. I can say that Martino was quite creative when he created the “Grow Bag”, because is a really unusual idea for a plant pot, and a pillow would be the last thing I’d imagine choosing as a pot design. The sleepy pot has dimensions of 35 ×35 cm, is manufactured by Ligne Roset and is marketed exclusively for hydroculture-friendly plants.. Grow bag is available in white/orange or gray/gray and the formed plastic Drink Tray in red, black or white. Finally this innovative idea for a plant pot would look great if you like to keep plants inside the house.

SMIT (Sustainably Minded Interactive Technology) latest technological innovation, the GROW panel, trumps both conventional solar panels and wind turbines in harnessing natural energy. Combining the best of green tech and ecology, GROW draws inspiration from ivy growing on the side of a building - resulting in a hybrid energy delivery device of flexible, ivy-like fluttering solar leaves that provide power via both sun and wind. Using a series of flexible solar cells as leaves, GROW takes the shape of ivy growing on a building- the leaves are solar cells while the wind that causes them to flutter is harvested as viable energy using a series of piezoelectric generators on the underside of each leaf. The GROW leaves are made from 100% recyclable polyethylene covered with thin film photovoltaic modules encapsulated in Tefzel.

The solar leaves need to be wired together in order to collect the energy they produce, but the system is extremely flexible allowing it to be installed on a building no matter what shape it is. It’s also extremely easy to maintain since replacing a single leaf when it fails doesn’t require you to take down the entire installation. - Via - Inhabitat
