Mission Sustainability

Ravi is a portable solar generator for small electronics appliances. The name Ravi is a Hindu name meaning benevolent sun god, appropriate as Ravi’s goal is to help lower greenhouse gas emissions through generating renewable energy and to encourage a lifestyle change to help the reduction of green house gases seem achievable for the average person.

Ravi is based on the concept of a flower, appearing as a closed flower to begin with. Once you open the ‘petals’ out, solar panels are revealed on the inside of them. Ravi toys with several emotional triggers of interaction from ‘growing energy’ to ‘picking a flower’.
