as part of the interni think tank spanish designer jaime hayon created 'smart grid gallery'
together with enel. the installation is an imaginary world of objects, between art and design,
that represent renewable energy sources (solar and wind) and intelligent management
of the energy grid. luminous objects and vases  have been made in ceramics bosa.
